Abstract

Self-inflicted violence has occurred in several epidemiological profiles, with various methods of trying against one's own life, characterizing the attempted suicide, asking possible interventions for this population, which is at greater psychosocial vulnerability. This work aimed to analyze, by means of notifications, the characterization - in a certain municipality that is in the interior of São Paulo (Votuporanga) - of individuals who went through the health service after trying some violence against themselves; the investigation period for the occurrences is between January 2015 and June 2017. The data collected were correlated according to location, sex, school level, previous attempts, marital status, sexual option, type of attempt, if you have any mental disorder or mental deficiency, among other relevant aspects. The items that characterize this individual are filled out by the health professionals who welcomed the person who tried the act against their own lives. Epidemiological data became essential for understanding the social and multifactorial context found with greater predominance, predicting possible biopsychosocial actions focused on different locations, where it was demonstrated that the phase that needs more preventive care are the adolescents, who presented a significant number of attempts suicide, visualizing the need for interventions in schools and higher education institutions.
