Abstract：Objective To investigate the medical staff's cognition and needs for scientific researches in a tertiary comprehensive hospital in Xizang,and to provide evidence for strengthening refined management of hospital scientif-ic researches.Methods A questionnaire was conducted to collect information on the medical staffs cognition and needs regarding scientific researches.A statistical analysis on these areas and constraints was carried out using SPSS 26.0 software.Results Medical staff in our hospital had a high level of cognition regarding scientific researches but low participation.The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that job position,professional title,length of service,and participation in research projects in the past five years significantly influenced medical staffs general cognition of scientific research(P＜0.05);while the highest academic degree and participation in research projects in the past five years significantly influenced their specific cognition of scientific research(P＜0.05).The top three re-search needs of medical staff were for databases and literature retrieval(76.65％),research methodology(71.98％),and research topic selection(66.93％).The top three constraints for medical staff to conduct scientific researches were busy clinical work(85.21％),lack of research ideas(69.26％),and absence of a research teams(64.59％).The chi-square test results from multiple response cross-analysis revealed significant differences among medical staff in differ-ent job positions regarding the purpose of conducting researches and the need for the hospital to establish a public ba-sic experimental platform(P＜0.05).Conclusion Enhancing medical staffs participation in scientific researches is crucial for promoting research work in hospitals.Hospitals need to rationally allocate and improve research resources and time,establish research collaboration platforms,optimize the research environment,strengthen research team building,provide guidance on research project applications,and establish a research mentor system,etc.,to improve medical staffs enthusiasm and capability for scientific researches.
