Restringir el acceso a pesticidas y armas de fuego podría prevenir más de 120.000 muertes por suicidio en las Américas en una década
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Washington, 17 de julio de 2024 (OPS).- Un estudio publicado en The Lancet Regional Health – Americas revela que la implementación de políticas para restringir el acceso a pesticidas altamente peligrosos y armas de fuego podría prevenir más de 120.000 muertes por suicidio en la región de las Américas en un período de diez años.

La investigación, realizada en colaboración con expertos de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS) y el Centro de Adicciones y Salud Mental (CAMH) de Canadá, sugiere que si se aplicaran restricciones al acceso a las armas de fuego o a los pesticidas en los países donde representan el 40% o más de los suicidios, la tasa de mortalidad podría reducirse en más del 20% entre los varones y del 11% entre las mujeres para 2030.

Anualmente se pierden cerca de 100.000 vidas por suicidio en las Américas y, a diferencia de otras regiones de la OMS, la tasa de mortalidad por suicidio ha aumentado en los últimos años. La restricción de medios es una intervención eficaz basada en la evidencia en la prevención del suicidio, y una estrategia clave recomendada por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) bajo su enfoque “VIVIR LA VIDA” para reducir la mortalidad por suicidio.

“El suicidio es prevenible y cada vida que se pierde es devastadora”, dijo Anselm Hennis, Director del Departamento de Enfermedades No Transmisibles y Salud Mental de la OPS y coautor del estudio. “Este estudio muestra que las políticas efectivas que limitan el acceso a dos de los métodos más comunes para el suicidio pueden tener un impacto en la reducción de la mortalidad en la región”, agregó.

Utilizando datos modelados de 2020 a 2030, el estudio estima un impacto importante en varios países. Por ejemplo, en El Salvador, Guyana, Nicaragua y Surinam, donde la ingesta de pesticidas altamente peligrosos provocó el 40% o más de los suicidios en cada país en 2019, las medidas de restricción podrían reducir sustancialmente las tasas de suicidio para 2030. Del mismo modo, en los Estados Unidos, donde las armas de fuego representaron más del 40% de las muertes por suicidio en el mismo año, se prevé que la aplicación de restricciones específicas conduzca a una marcada disminución de las tasas de suicidio en la próxima década.

El estudio concluye que la implementación efectiva de medidas para restringir el acceso a pesticidas y armas de fuego podría prevenir la pérdida de más de 123.000 vidas por suicidio en toda la región de las Américas.

Las reducciones más notables se observarían en la subregión del Caribe no latino, donde la tasa de mortalidad por suicidio podría reducirse hasta en un 31% entre los hombres y un 34% entre las mujeres si se aplicara una restricción específica a los pesticidas altamente peligrosos en tres países clave: Guyana, Suriname y Trinidad y Tobago, en 2020.

“La implementación de medidas de restricción es más efectiva cuando los métodos son prevalentes y representan una proporción significativa de las muertes por suicidio”, sostuvo el doctor Renato Oliveira e Souza, jefe de la Unidad de Salud Mental y Uso de Sustancias de la OPS y coautor del estudio. “Sin embargo, también es crucial considerar el contexto sociocultural al implementar políticas de restricción de medios”.

Los investigadores detrás del estudio hacen un llamado a la colaboración multisectorial para poner en práctica estas intervenciones basadas en la evidencia a fin de cumplir con la meta de la OMS de reducir la tasa de mortalidad por suicidio en un tercio para 2030.
