Currently attempted suicide in adolescents is a reali- ty occupying a place among the top three causes of death in most countries and in some, second only to another type of violent death: the motor vehicle acci- dent. The worst thing is that the trend is to increase suicide in adolescents, according to estimates of the World Health Organization (WHO). OBJECTIVE: To identify risk factors related to suicide attempt in adolescents who are treated at the Clinical Surgical Teaching Hospital Regional “Daniel Alcides Carrión” of the city of Huancayo in 2012.METHOD: The research was conducted is descripti- ve, which allowed us to describe or measure as ac- curately as possible and independent variables or concepts considered in the present investigation, a sample of 80 adolescents was taken, the survey was applied to us allowed to determine the risk factors of the investigation, the data collected were statistically analyzed to produce graphs, and thus test the hypo- thesis of the proposed research. RESULTS: To obtain these results we conclude that the suicide attempt among these two groups shows that when damage was done was in order to take his own life this shows that it is not a major risk factor as only the 16.2% of Juveniles who committed suicide attempt when damage was made in order to take his own life this means that this factor did not affect de- cision making to commit this suicide attempt.
