Abstract
This month’s Journal publishes two important studies concerned with the use of risk assessment scales after selfharm, one a systematic review and the other a multicentre cohort study. We agree with the authors: that each study adds weight to the existing evidence that points towards avoiding the use of such scales in clinical practice.
