Abstract
RAMIREZ QUEZADA, Leonor; RICARDO RAMIREZ, Meilyn and BROOKS LEGEYRE, Augusto César. Survival to suicide attempt due to burns in adolescents. MEDISAN [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.7, pp.648-654. ISSN 1029-3019.
Adolescents who have made suicide attempt caused by burns have been assisted in the Caumatology Service of the Teaching General Hospital "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" from Santiago de Cuba. The multidisciplinary team in charge of these cases has acquired experience, which has allowed them to carry out a group of actions to achieve in these patients a positive behavior to face life and; therefore, their survival when facing such attempts.
Keywords : adolescence; suicide attempt; survival; secondary health care.
