The aim of this study is to determine the epidemiological profile of suicidal poisoning with drugs among adolescents in Morocco. Methods: This is a retrospective study of deliberate self-poisoning cases, reported to the Moroccan Poison Control Center between 1980 and 2014. Results: A total of 3,856 cases of suicidal poisoning among adolescents 15 to 19 years old were recorded, with 13 cases of successful suicide and 41 repeated suicide attempts. The average age of the patients was 15.5 years. According to the results, 84.7% were female with a female-male ratio of 5.5. The majority of cases occurred at home (97.8%). The signs and symptoms presented by the patients were varied, depending on the amount of drug ingested and the delay before treatment. Conclusion: Suicide and suicide attempts in children and adolescents continue to be a major public health problem, and topical research and surveys have clearly highlighted suicide as one of the commonest causes of death among young people.Boukhorb SaraHadrya FatineAmiar LatifaHmimou SoumaiaSoulaymani AbdelmajidRhalem NaimaDiallo TidianeMokhtari AbdelrhaniSoulaymani-Bencheikh RachidaHami HindeEDP SciencesarticlesuicidedrugsadolescentsmoroccoEnvironmental sciencesGE1-350ENFRE3S Web of Conferences, Vol 319, p 02004 (2021) |
