N2  - The COVID-19 pandemic put global medical systems under massive pressure for its  uncertainty, severity, and persistence. For detecting the prevalence of suicidal and  self-harm ideation (SSI) and its related risk factors among hospital staff during  the COVID-19 pandemic, this cross-sectional study collected the sociodemographic  data, epidemic-related information, the psychological status and need, and perceived  stress and support from 11507 staff in 46 hospitals by an online survey from  February 14 to March 2, 2020. The prevalence of SSI was 6.47%. Hospital staff with  SSI had high family members or relatives infected number and the self-rated  probability of infection. Additionally, they had more perceived stress,  psychological need, and psychological impact. On the contrary, hospital staff  without SSI reported high self-rated health, willingness to work in a COVID-19 ward,  confidence in defeating COVID-19, and perceived support. Furthermore, they reported  better marital or family relationship, longer sleep hours, and shorter work hours. The infection of family members or relatives, poor marital status, poor self-rated  health, the current need for psychological intervention, perceived high stress,  perceived low support, depression, and anxiety were independent factors to SSI. A  systematic psychological intervention strategy during a public health crisis was  needed for the hospital staff's mental well-being.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
