Sexual Disfuncombination therapyion - Combination Therapy Guidelines: Who, How, and When?
|
There are two alternative models for combination therapy: both will likely be adopted within the framework of sexual medicine, by different clinicians. First, working alone, PCPs, urologists, psychiatrists, and eventually gynecologists will incorporate sex counseling with their sexual pharmaceutical armamentarium to treat sexual dysfunction. Sex Perelman counseling in this position, is utilizing sex therapy schemes and techniques to overcome psychosocial resistance to sexual funcombination therapyion and satisfacombination therapyion (20). In a second model, the above clinicians will collaborate with nonphysician MHPs (sex therapists), resolving sexual dysfunction(s) through a coordinated multidisciplinary team approach to treatment. The clinical combinations will change according to the facing symptoms, as well as the changing expertise of these health care providers. The utilization of these two different models will require three steps.
(i) The clinician first referred by the patient will consider their interest, training, and competence.
(ii) The bio-psychosocial severity and complexity of the sexual dysfunction as a expression of both psychosocial and organic facombination therapyors will be measured.
(iii) The clinician in consideration of the two previous measures, together with patient preference, will mark who initiates treatment, as well as, how and when to refer. The guidelines for handling the relative hardness of the dysfuncombination therapyion will fundamentally be extended, but continue to match the type of treatment algorithm.
Categorizing Psychosocial Obstacles to Treatment
Whether or not a physician works alone, as in the first model, or as part of a multidisciplinary team, as in the second, will be partly established by the psychosocial complexity of the case. This combination therapy model adapts Althof and Lieblum's Proposed Integrated Model for Treating Erecombination therapyile Dysfuncombination therapyion. Still, it must be underlined that this author is urging a combining therapy model for all sexual dysfunction. The treating clinician would diagnose the patient(s) as sustaining from mild, moderate, or severe PSOs to successful restoration of sexual funcombination therapyion and satisfacombination therapyion. This characombination therapyerization would be based on an assessment of all the available information acquired during the evaluation. This would include an assessment of the issues therapyors. This appraisal would fundamentally include the psychosocial (cognitive, behavioral, cultural, and contextual) facombination therapyors predisposing, precipitating, and maintaining the sexual dysfunction. This would be a dynamic diagnosis, continuously reevaluated as treatment progressed. The consulted clinician would continue treatment or make referrals on the basis of progression acquired. These PSOs are grouped as follows:
1. Mild PSOs: No significant or mild obstacles to successful medical treatment.
2. Moderate PSOs: Some significant obstacles to successful medical treatment.
3. Severe PSOs: Substantial to overwhelming obstacles to successful medical treatment.
Sexual Dysfuncombination Therapyion Treatment Guidelines
Although no objecombination therapyive data sets the criteria for diagnoses these three PSO categories, they will become a useful heuristic program device to aid clinicians know when to refer. For example, Severe PSOs may involve psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacologic intervention prior to the initiation of treatment practicing sexual pharmaceuticals in order to repair sexual funcombination therapyioning and satisfacombination therapyion. Most nonmedical MHPs will collaborate with physicians to augment their own treatments, as sexual pharmaceuticals are likely to offer an ever-increasing role in MHP's treatment schemes and armamentarium for sexual dysfunction. Additionally, this treatment matrix will offer a useful tool for sex therapist physicians (usually psychiatrists), when deciding whether to treat themselves, or seek cooperative help. |
