New guidelines for treating trans people getting surgery
There’s a major lack of health data on transgender populations — and that has far-reaching effects on all types of care. Surgeons, for example, sometimes ask trans patients to stop taking their hormones for days or weeks before surgery, despite a lack of evidence around how it affects outcomes. Now a working group of experts from the UK have published guidelines for treating trans people getting surgery. In Anaesthesia, they advise that trans patients not stop taking hormones before surgery, unless there’s a specific contraindication.
Other recommendations include using the appropriate name and pronouns for trans patients, offering pregnancy tests to anyone with a uterus regardless of their gender expression, and considering how a patient’s airway may be affected if they’ve received gender-affirming cosmetic procedures on their face or neck.
