Description:
There is a growing body of evidence supporting transgender and nonbinary (TNB) health that is relevant to clinical practice. This session will help attendees navigate barriers to quality care including unreliable information perpetuated in the media and political dynamics that have a direct influence on PA practice. The speakers will introduce a “Top 10” of current publications from medical literature that respond to questions commonly asked by our patients, address prior knowledge gaps in TNB health, and highlight new developments that were published after the most recent guidelines. The literature will be explored through the lens of evidence-based medicine (EBM), bioethics, and/or intersectionality.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
⦁ Apply current knowledge to the care of transgender and nonbinary patients across their lifespan
⦁ Describe how the literature informs treatment goals for the care of transgender and nonbinary patients
⦁ Identify the transgender and nonbinary patients that would benefit most from the current medical knowledge
