Abstract

<p style="text-align: justify;">The issue of suicidal behavior in adolescents is one of the most disturbing and complex. The present work is aimed to draw attention to the problem of suicidal behavior in adolescents in modern Russian reality. While analyzing cases of severe injuries due to suicidal behavior in adolescents who were admitted to the Clinical and Research Institute of Emergency Pediatric Surgery and Trauma (CRIEPST) in Moscow (Russia) , the authors stated their significant increase in recent years . In 2016-2023, 58 children after suicidal attempts were hospitalized to CRIEPST. All children were teenagers (11-17 years old). The authors not only noted an increased risk of suicide in 14-16 age group of teenagers, but they also noted gender features in this group. Two groups of suicide causation were defined as well: psychopathological processes and affective, impulsive reactions. After summarizing findings obtained in CRIEPST , the researchers have stated an increase in the number of psychopathological predispositions in children in the recent years. An increased number of cases with suicidal behavior in adolescents and predominance of psychopathological processes as risk factors should make adults be more attentive to tendencies in suicide causation and their prevention. The data presented in the article are preliminary and incomplete, as they do not cover cases that did not lead to severe somatic consequences.</p>
