Injuries as Risk Factors
Suicide Risk
In9mate Partner Violence
Trauma9c Brain Injury

Trauma9c Brain Injury & Suicide
EDC Learningtransformslives.
A blow or jolt to the head or a penetrating head injury that disrupts the function of the brain
Trauma9c Brain Injury Defined
EDC Learningtransformslives.
Physical Trauma: Also known as "injury", is a physiological wound caused by an external source. It can also be described as "a physical wound or injury, such as a fracture or blow".
Psychological Trauma: a deeply distressing or disturbing experience. An experience that produces psychological injury or pain.
Trauma Defined
EDC Learningtransformslives.
“Trauma1c brain injury is associated with substan1ally elevated risks of premature mortality, par1cularly for suicide, injuries, and assaults, even ader adjustment for sociodemographic and familial factors.”
Fazel 2014
“The risk for commiUng suicide is two to four 1mes greater for individuals with TBI than for the general popula1on. Even mild brain injury increases risk.” Center for Substance Abuse Treatment 2010
TBI as a Risk Factor for Suicide
EDC Learningtransformslives.
Substance Abuse • Can lead to TBI • Oden co-‐occurs with suicidality
• Can be a symptom of sustaining a TBI
“When a psychiatric disorder or SUD co-occurs with TBI, the risk for attempted or completed suicide is further increased.” Center for Substance Abuse Treatment 2010
