摘要
导言：女性退伍军人的自杀风险较高，自杀意念（SI）和自杀未遂（SA）的发生率也很高。人们对使用生殖健康护理服务的女性退伍军人的自杀意念/自杀未遂相关情况了解有限，这阻碍了针对女性退伍军人的需求和偏好制定循证的、对性别问题有敏感认识的自杀预防计划。本研究旨在：1）描述使用退伍军人健康管理局（VHA）生殖保健服务的女性退伍军人中SI和SA的发生率和特征；2）初步探讨生育、怀孕和养育子女相关因素与SI和SA之间的关联，以指导未来的研究：2018财年使用VHA生殖健康护理的9/11后女性退伍军人（n = 352）完成了一项关于生殖健康、心理健康和养育子女的横断面调查：大约 30% 和 12% 的人在服兵役后分别经历过 SI 和 SA（s）；10% 的人报告了过去一个月的 SI。不孕症、妊娠失败、首次怀孕年龄和父母状况与 SI 或 SA 史无显著关联，但在不孕症和首次怀孕年龄方面观察到明显的效应大小；需要进一步研究。在父母中，父母的功能与 SI/SA 无关，但较低的父母满意度与过去一个月的 SI 显著相关（患病率比为 3.36；95% 置信区间为 1.19-9.46；已对人口统计学、军事特征、心理健康症状进行调整）：结论：在接受退伍军人事务部生殖健康护理服务的女性退伍军人中，退伍后SI和SA（s）很常见。父母满意度低的女性退伍军人的风险尤其高。研究结果可指导未来的研究，并为临床护理提供信息，以促进自杀预防。
Suicidal Ideation and Suicide Attempts Among Women Veterans Using VA Reproductive Health Care: Prevalence and Associations With Fertility-, Pregnancy- and Parenting-related Factors
Introduction
Women veterans are at elevated risk for suicide and experience a high prevalence of suicidal ideation (SI) and suicide attempt (SA) history. Knowledge regarding SI/SA correlates among women veterans who use reproductive health care services is limited, inhibiting development of evidence-based, gender-sensitive suicide prevention programming tailored to meet women veterans’ needs and preferences. This study aimed to 1) describe the prevalence and characteristics of SI and SA among women veterans using Veterans Health Administration (VHA) reproductive health care services and 2) provide an initial exploration of associations between fertility-, pregnancy-, and parenting-related factors with SI and SA to guide future research.
Methods
Post-9/11 women veterans (n = 352) who used VHA reproductive health care in fiscal year 2018 completed a cross-sectional survey on reproductive health, mental health, and parenting.
Results
Approximately 30% and 12% experienced SI and SA(s), respectively, after military service; 10% reported past-month SI. Infertility, pregnancy loss, age at first pregnancy, and parental status were not significantly associated with SI or SA history, although notable effect sizes were observed for infertility and age at first pregnancy; further research is warranted. Among parents, parental functioning was not associated with SI/SA, but lower parental satisfaction was significantly associated with past-month SI (prevalence ratio, 3.36; 95% confidence interval, 1.19–9.46; adjusting for demographics, military characteristics, mental health symptoms).
Conclusions
Postmilitary SI and SA(s) are common among women veterans accessing VHA reproductive health care services. Those with low parental satisfaction may be at particularly high risk. Findings can guide future research and inform clinical care to facilitate suicide prevention.
