Abstract：Objective:To investigate the status quo of suicidal ideation of malignant tumor patients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 136 malignant tumor in patients were investigated by using General information questionnaire,Self Rating Idea of Suiciale Scale(SIOSS)and Short form 36 Health Survey(SF 36).According to the SIOSS score standard,the patients were divided into suicide group (SIOSS≥12 分)with 73 cases and non suicide group (SIOSS<12)with 63 cases.Results:There were 73 patients (53.7%)with sui-cidal ideation,including 24 male patients (32.9%)and 49 female patients (67.1%);there were statistically sig-nificant differences in gender and occupation aspects between both groups (P <0.05);the 5 factors (physiologi-cal functioning,role physical role emotional,social functioning,mental health)scores of SF 36 in suicide group were lower than those in non suicide group (P <0.05).SIOSS score was negatively related to the scores of general health status,social functioning,energy,mental health,role emotional role physical and physical functioning factors in SF 36 scale.Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that gender,education lev-el and mental health and physiological function of SF 36 had the predictive significance for patients with malig-nant tumor.Conclusion:The incidence of suicide ideation in patients with malignant tumor was higher,in which women accounted for a larger proportion;the scores of physical functioning,role physical,role emotional,so-cial function and mental health of patients in suicide group were lower than that in non suicide group.The worse the quality of life of patients with malignant tumor was,the greater the risk of suicide was.Those malignant tumor patients (Women or with higher education level or with poor mental health and physiological functions) had higher risk of suicide.
