Abstract

A quasi-experimental, time matched design will examine the impact of COVID-19 on suicide-related emergency department (ED) admittances among adolescents. Researchers will review individual medical records to obtain all data. It is hypothesized that the 2020 sample will have a higher incidence of suicide-related ED admittance compared to 2019.
