“…When analyzing the results, other means are noticed to differ between men and women. An epidemiological study suggests that this difference may be explained historically by higher access of men to more lethal means and by the smaller exposure of women to the sentiment of failure due to financial misfortunes, competition, and rashness (19,(23)(24) .…”

Objective: To analyze the incidence and means of elderly suicide in Brazil. Method: Epidemiologic, cross-sectional, quantitative, and retrospective study. The data were obtained in a platform maintained by the Ministry of Health and analyzed. The mortality rate was calculated and means and percentages regarding the employed means of suicide were obtained. Results: In this period, 8,977 suicides took place among the population over 60 years. The highest suicide rates were concentrated in the population over 80, which presented a mean 8.4/100,000 for this period, and between 70 and 79 years, with a mean rate of 8.2/100,000. Considering the total elderly population over 60 years, this value reached 7.8/100,000, whereas in the general population this was 5.3/100,000. The values are always higher among the elderly population: the mean rate in the last five years among the elderly is 47.2% higher than the mean for the general population. The main mean of suicide was hanging (68%), followed by firearm (11%), self-intoxication (9%), falling from a high place (5%), and undefined or undetermined means (6%). Conclusion: Epidemiologic analyses bring visibility to the dyad aging and suicide, corroborating the pertinence of this theme.

“…Contrary to initiatives aimed at reducing the circulation of means of perpetrating suicide, the Brazilian State has approved measures for the mass release of previously banned pesticides, many of which are considered to be highly powerful and harmful to human health. In addition, the State has facilitated the possession of firearms for the general population which could increase the suicide rate in the country 38,39 .…”

The objective of this study was to analyze the temporal trend of suicide mortality in women in the states of Northeastern Brazil. This is an ecological study of a time series stratified by states in Northeast Brazil from 1996 to 2018, with data extracted from the Mortality Information System (SIM). The temporal trend was evaluated by negative binomial regression (p values≤0.05). There was a higher proportion of deaths in black and brown women (73.9%), single (57.3%), with the place of death occurring in the home (53.4%). Hanging and strangulation stood out as the perpetration means (47.6%). Most states showed an upward temporal trend, except for Pernambuco, Rio Grande do Norte, Sergipe and Maranhão, which showed a steady trend (p>0.05). An upward temporal trend was identified in the analysis of deaths by suicide in women in five states in northeastern Brazil between 1996 and 2018. The information presented can support planning and decision-making for the prevention of suicide among women in northeastern Brazil.

“…Diversos estudos têm demonstrado que a complexidade do ato de autoextermínio tem diversas nuances no cenário biopsicossocial da pessoa. Dantas (2019) salienta tal concepção supracitada, tem na sua idealização o impacto direto de fatores biológicos, ambientais, psicológicos e sociais. Frisando ainda, que "os usuários de serviços de saúde mental não são reconhecidos como 'sujeitos de direitos' e vivenciam diversas formas de violação de direitos humanos, de estigma, de discriminação e de invalidação."…”

O suicídio tem sido um problema de saúde pública e que envolve questões complexas e das mais diversas ordens: socioculturais, históricas, psicossociais e ambientais. A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) reconhece o suicídio como uma prioridade de saúde pública. No boletim epidemiológico sobre o perfil das tentativas e óbitos por suicídio no Brasil, publicado em 2017, no período de 2011 a 2015, foram registrados 55.649 óbitos por suicídio no país. O município de Boa Vista tem destaque expressivo nos números de vítimas de autolesão e suicídio no cenário nacional. Diversos estudos têm demonstrado a complexidade dos atos de autoextermínio, os quais exigem um enfrentamento com políticas de abordagem ampla e multissetorial. Esse estudo objetivou saber de que forma a Rede de Atenção Psicossocial exerce o enfrentamento ao suicídio no município de Boa Vista, de modo a identificar seus equipamentos e serviços existentes, tendo o apoio estatístico do nível pré-hospitalar ao pós-hospitalar. Para a realização desse estudo se utilizou método descritivo e pesquisa bibliográfica. Identificou-se a base jurídica a nível federal responsável por fomentar as políticas de enfrentamento ao suicídio. Todavia, ficou clara a fragilidade da rede assistencial local, pela ausência de serviços assistenciais estratégicos. A análise dos relatórios estatísticos locais demonstrou um número expressivo de vítimas de autolesão e mortes decorrentes de suicídio, principalmente entre a população jovem, indo ao encontro das tendências mundiais e nacional, reforçando a urgência do tema. O estudo evidenciou uma necessidade de medidas mais eficazes para o enfrentamento ao suicídio e suas consequências.
