Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the risk factors of suicide attempt and offer the prevention measures.Methods: This study collected the suicide attempters from 10 county hospitals through the hospital emergency and patient registration system in Shandong province from 2013-2015, and community control for the case was selected matched with community, gender, age (± 2 years). Questionnaire was used to collect data. The univariate statistical methods were adopted to preliminarily screen the influencing factors, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to establish the model. Results: There were 424 cases including148 (34. 9％) males and 276 (65. 1％) females, 434 controls including 158 (36. 4％) males and 276 (63. 6％) females. Univariate and multivariate analysis both indicated that mental illness, poorer family economic status, poorer conjugal relationship, family history of attempted suicide, worse social relationships and poorer individual education opportunity were the risk factors of suicide attempt, but larger family member was the protective factor for the suicide attempts. Conclusion: Preventive measures should be taken to reduce suicide attempts.
