SANTOS CESPEDES, Bárbara de la C et al. Tentativa de suicidio y apgar familiar modificado. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1997, vol.13, n.4, pp. 325-329. ISSN 1561-3038.

50 patients who attempted suicide in 1993 at the health area of the "Josué País García" Polyclinic from the "Abel Santamaría" Urban Center, in Santiago de Cuba, were studied by using the modified family Apgar, a tool that measures the family functioning degree, adaptation, relation, development, effect, and living together categories, as well as the Apgar's general result, showed that the family dynamics of the persons investigated was significantly unfavourable. These findings were validated by the conventional statistical techniques. This paper recommends the investigation of the sucide phenomenon with the perspective of the systemic approach of the family and the individual, a model hat escapes as an important tool for family physicians.

Palavras-chave : SUICIDE, ATTEMPTED [psychology]; FAMILY; RISK FACTORS; PRIMARY HEALTH CARE.
