A review of literature data with the involvement of the authors' own clinical experience on the main characteristics of suicide attempters who chose traumatic methods of deliberate self-harm is presented. It has been shown that in almost all types of injuries, both in men and women, of various age and social groups, there can be found such suicidal contingent. Traumatic suicides are often associated with mental disorders, alcohol. The work of the medical staff in trauma wards/centers often includes providing care to suicidal individuals. However, not in all cases, non-psychiatric specialists are able to recognize these patients, assess suicidal risk and propose a treatment program, including measures to prevent future suicide. The authors conclude that the wider involvement of mental health professionals in counseling and treatment of trauma patients, as well as the need to improve the level of knowledge in the field of suicidology of doctors and nurses working with various kinds of injuries, is required. Among the organizational measures, the issues of timely identification, registration and keeping record of the suicidological contingent, the organization of psychological, psychiatric, and, if necessary, drug addiction assistance to patients, both at the stage of staying in a trauma hospital and subsequent dynamic observation, need to be addressed.
