“…It is extremely important to be able to empathize, be understanding and objective, and give hope and confidence in the approach to these patients (2,5,16) . It was reported that patients apply to hospitals for various reasons before attempting suicide, the most frequently applied area is the emergency department, and patients who have attempted suicide has an increased probability to attempt again (17) . It is necessary for the nurses to identify the cases applying to the emergency department because of suicide attempts, to be directed to the psychiatry clinics to receive psychiatric care, and to be followed up there.…”

Aim:The present study was designed to examine the relationship between the knowledge of nursing students about suicide and their stigmatizing attitudes towards people committing suicide, and the factors affecting it. Methods:The study had a cross-sectional and descriptive-correlational design and was conducted with 446 nursing students. The data were collected using the Socio-Demographic Data Form, the Suicide Stigmatization Scale (SSS), and the Literacy of Suicide Scale (LOSS). Findings: The mean LOSS score was at a moderate level, and was at the lowest level in the dimension of "knowing the symptoms" (1.738±1.267). Students who applied to a psychiatrist before and reported that they had a psychiatric diagnosis had a high mean score on the LOSS. Those who said that they needed psychological support had a higher level of knowledge on suicide than those who did not (p=0.001). The mean ILSS score was at a moderate level and the most approved sub-dimension was "isolation/depression" (3.015±0.459). The stigmatization sub-dimension of the students who did not have a family history of psychiatric treatment was found to be higher and significant when compared to the students who had a family history of psychiatric treatment (p=0.001). A relationship was detected between the students' total scale mean scores on LOSS and the mean scores of the Stigmatization (r=-0.471), isolation/depression (r=-0.37), and sublimation/normalization (r=-0.363) sub-dimensions (p=0.001). A significant relationship was detected between the level of knowledge on suicide and stigmatization (F=126, 260; p=0.000<0.05). Conclusion:The level of knowledge about suicide is effective in reducing stigmatization towards suicide. There is a need for psychoeducational programs to reduce the stigmatizing attitudes of nursing students, who will have important roles in healthcare practices and patient care in the future, and to ensure the adequacy of their knowledge about suicide.

Introduction The aim of this study was to determine the sociodemographic characteristics of psychiatric emergencies presenting to emergency departments (ED), the provisional diagnoses and reasons for consultation by emergency physicians, and to determine the rate of suicide attempts among patients presenting to emergency departments for psychiatric emergencies. Methods The records of all patients aged 18 years and older admitted to the emergency department of the Department of Emergency Medicine, a tertiary hospital, with either a pre-existing psychiatric diagnosis or a new psychiatric provisional diagnosis made by emergency physicians between January 2020 and December 2023 were reviewed. Results According to the data obtained in the study, it was determined that the most common provisional diagnoses made by emergency physicians in psychiatric emergencies were suicide attempts (41.88%), agitation (21.94%), schizophrenia (8.44%), psychosis (7.91%) and manic attack (6.54%). It was found that 49.3% of psychiatric emergencies resulted in discharge and 25.5% resulted in hospitalisation. Among the provisional diagnoses, depression, mutism and sleep disorders were most commonly associated with refusal of treatment, while depression and suicide were the most common reasons for hospitalisation. Among psychiatric emergency patients who attempted suicide, medication, sharp objects and chemicals were the most common substances ingested. Discussion In this study, it was determined that a great portion of the emergency psychiatric cases admitted to the emergency department consisted of patients who attempted suicide. However, due to the crowdedness and fast pace of emergency departments, it is understood that in psychiatric emergencies, epidemiological profile data are missing in the files of the cases and detailed medical history cannot be obtained from the patients We think that recording better data of patient who admitted a psychiatric condition to the emergency department will provide better information about the patients in future visits and improve the care to be provided. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurses recommend the implementation of emergency department-based rehabilitation programs for these patients.
