Abstract | Aims: The pattern of suicidality in older patients with psychiatric disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic is not clear. This study examined the prevalence of suicidality and its association with quality of life (QOL) among older clinically stable patients with psychiatric disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A multicenter, cross-sectional study was conducted from May 22 to July 15, 2020, among four major tertiary psychiatric hospitals in China. Suicidality was assessed by asking 3 standardized questions. Depressive symptoms, pain, and QOL were assessed with the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), the numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire-brief version, respectively. Results: A total of 1063 clinically stable patients participated and completed the assessment. The prevalence of suicidality was 11.8% (95% CI: 9.9%–13.7%) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that poor treatment adherence (P =.009, OR = 1.86, 95% CI: 1.17–2.96) and perceived illness worsening during the COVID-19 outbreak (P =.02, OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.15–3.73), being diagnosed with major depressive disorder (P <.001, OR = 2.79, 95% CI: 1.68–4.64), PHQ-9 total score (P <.001, OR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.15–1.24) and NPRS total score (P =.002, OR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.06–1.29) were associated with higher risk of suicidality. After controlling for covariates, older psychiatric patients with suicidality had lower QOL compared to those without (F =16.5, P<.001). Conclusions: Suicidality was common in older patients with clinically stable psychiatric disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering its negative impact on QOL and personal suffering, routine screening and preventive suicide measures should be implemented for older psychiatric patients. |
