Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the sociodemographic characteristics, laboratory findings, medical conditions and Beck Depression scores of patients admitted to toxicology intensive care due to suicidal attempt. Material and Methods: Research is cross-sectional. The study is conducted in Toxicology intensive care between 01.05.2018-30.04.2019. A total of 135 male and female individuals aged 18 and over are included in the study. Data for the study are collected with a 60-question data collection form and a 21-question Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Arithmetic mean±standard deviation, frequency distributions and percentages are used to summarize the data. Relationships between categorical data are evaluated by Chi-square test. Statistically, p<0.05 is considered significant. Results: The average age of the study group, 70.4% of which were women, was 27.74±11.72. 20.1% (n=27) of the participants stated that they have attempted suicidal at least once before. 56.3% (n=18) of those who previously attempted suicidal reported that they tried to commit suicide by drinking drug. 53.3% of the applicants were symptomatic because of suicidal attempt. While 92.6% (n=125) of the patients were discharged with health, 7.4% (n=10) were transferred to another clinic. The mean score that patients received from BDI was 22.78±14.87. 37.8% of the participants (n=51) ranged from 0 to 16; 62.2% (n=84) scored between 17 and 63. Conclusion: As a result of the study, it is determined that one-fifth of patients had attempted suicide at least once before the current attempt. As a result of our research, two thirds of the patients received high scores from BDI which are considered to be at risk for depression.
