Suicídio; Pandemia; Saúde Mental; Covid-19.Resumo
O propósito deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão bibliográfica com o objetivo de avaliar o comportamento suicida durante a pandemia por COVID-19. Sendo assim, foi realizada uma busca nos bancos de dados do PubMed e Scielo com os artigos científicos publicados entre janeiro de 2020 e abril de 2021. Os descritores utilizados foram Suicide e Coronavírus. Após aplicar os critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram selecionados 37 artigos. A maioria dos estudos revisados demonstrou que a pandemia exacerbou alguns fatores de risco para o comportamento suicida, como a presença de transtorno psiquiátrico associado, isolamento social, desemprego, uso de álcool, violência doméstica, estigma social, notícias negativas, doenças neurológicas, transtornos do sono, acesso restrito a serviços de saúde e outros. Dessa forma, espera-se um aumento proporcional nas taxas de comportamento suicida durante e após o cenário atual da COVID-19. Ainda são necessárias mais pesquisas na área que contribuam para o reconhecimento precoce de fatores de risco que interferem diretamente no comportamento suicida. É importante que novos estudos foquem no desenvolvimento de estratégias de enfrentamento mais definidas diante dessa problemática, a fim de minimizar o impacto social, econômico e na saúde pública referente ao aumento do comportamento suicida.
