[The development of suicide rates in the Bezirkskrankenhaus Bayreuth 1976 - (including) 2000].
Newer publications about psychiatric in-patient suicide discuss the so-called "increase hypothesis" of suicide of mentally ill in-patients controversially. In our study of in-patient suicides of the Bezirkskrankenhaus Bayreuth, a state mental hospital for adult psychiatry, the number of suicides and suicide rate over 25 years 1979 - 2000 did not show any increase. During the last 4 - 5 years we observe a trend toward a decrease.
