dc.description.abstractIntroduction: This study is part the Investigator Initiated Research (IIR) project under the mental health suicide and para suicide cluster. Self-harm is an important predictor of suicide and leaves a significant long-lasting psychological effect. Despite the increasing prevalence of rate of self-harm, very little research had been done in Asian countries. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of self-harm in selected hospitals, demographic profiles and factors associated with development of self-harm. Methods: This is a multi-centred cross sectional study. Six months of data collection was performed between the 1st November 2013 and 30th April 2014. All cases that were identified to have carried out Self-Harm were interviewed using The World Health Organization (WHO) SUPRE-MISS Questionnaire Annexe 1 which had been adapted to the Malaysian culture by the research committee members. Results: A total of 99 samples were obtained for this study. They mostly came from low socioeconomic background. Majority of the patients were females, and this was consistent with studies worldwide. Poisoning by pesticides was the most frequent method of choice and about 30% of the patients had previous attempts. Conclusion: Sociodemographic factors play a significant role in self-harm. It is important to know the sociodemographic profile to identify which group of people are at risk and intervention can be focused. � 2019 UPM Press. All rights reserved.en_US
