Suicidal deaths in elementary school students in Korea.
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of childhood suicidal deaths among elementary school students that occurred from 2011 to 2015 in Korea.
METHODS: The report form of each suicide case by the teacher in charge to the Education Ministry was reviewed retrospectively.
RESULTS: There were 19 suicidal deaths (12 boys, 7 girls) in elementary school students. The youngest case was a third grader (n = 1). Jumping from heights (n = 12) was the most frequently used method. Most suicides (n = 12) were committed in their homes.
CONCLUSION: These results highlight the alarming trend of early suicidal deaths and the importance of early suicide prevention strategies, especially in schools.
