Key points

  • The approach achieved AUPRC scores of 0.887 ± 0.016 and 0.884 ± 0.012 on internal and external validation, respectively.
  • Prospectively, it achieved an AUPRC of 0.881 ± 0.008 at the development institution and 0.879 ± 0.012 and 0.816 ± 0.015 at two external institutions without site-specific retraining.
  • Its key advantage is that it can identify major self-harm methods with 95 percent accuracy, supporting more granular surveillance beyond binary classification.
