Self-inflicted specific pattern burns in psychiatric patients.
Self-inflicted burns represent a major social and medical problem for society. Differences have been demonstrated between patients who attempt suicide and those who deliberately harm themselves without any intention of killing themselves. These self-inflicted injuries may resemble injuries that are intentionally inflicted by others and may require investigation by protective services. Little is known about these specific pattern burn injuries in psychiatric patients.
