- W4223460485 abstract "Transgender individuals have been systemically excluded from U.S. health care, creating barriers and disparities that other populations do not face. Gender-affirming surgery represents an emerging treatment modality for gender dysphoria, however, little is known about how transgender patients experience the perioperative pathway. This study sought to characterize the experiences of transgender patients seeking gender-affirming surgery and identify opportunities for improvement.A qualitative study was conducted at an academic medical center between July and December 2020. Semistructured interviews were conducted after a postoperative encounter with adult patients who had undergone gender-affirming surgery within the past year. A purposive sampling strategy was used to maximize representation across surgery types and surgeons. Recruitment continued until thematic saturation was reached.All invited patients agreed to participate, yielding 36 interviews (response rate=100%). Four major themes emerged. First, gender-affirming surgery was described as a major life event, often reflecting years of personal decision making and research. Second, participants stressed the importance of surgeon investment, surgeon experience caring for transgender patients, and individualized care in developing a strong relationship with their care team. Third, self-advocacy was necessary to navigate the perioperative pathway and overcome barriers. Last, participants discussed a lack of equity and provider awareness regarding transgender health issues, including correct pronoun usage, terminology, and insurance coverage.Patients undergoing gender-affirming surgery encounter unique perioperative barriers to care, which would benefit from targeted interventions in the health care system. To improve the pathway, our findings support the creation of multidisciplinary gender-affirmation clinics, greater emphasis on transgender care in medical education, and insurance policy reforms aimed at promoting consistent and equitable coverage." @default.
