Description
Summary:This work by Dr. Ana Sarracent focuses on studying the risk factors associated with completed suicides in Havana, Cuba, during 2010-2011. Utilizing a case-control observational study, the book analyzes 400 cases of suicide matched with 400 natural deaths to identify risk and protective factors for suicidal behavior. The research employs the Psychological Autopsy Model to assess these factors and proposes a tool for primary healthcare providers to evaluate suicide risk. The study highlights mental disorders as a primary risk factor and aims to enhance suicide prevention strategies in Havana. It also addresses the social and political implications of high suicide rates in Cuba, seeking to improve public health and counter negative perceptions of the socialist system.
