A protocol of response to families requesting sterilization for retarded youths was developed, utilizing the multidisciplinary approach already structured in a project of sex education and family planning for handicapped juveniles. We operated on 20 patients over a 3 1/2 -year period. Specific criteria for sterilization eligibility were applied, based on medical diagnosis and psychometric and psychosocial maturity evaluation. Long-term follow-up indicates parental satisfaction, improved school attendance for patients after hysterectomy who were previously unable to cope with menstrual hygiene, and no postoperative depression or increase of sexual activity or sexual exploitation.
我们制定了一项针对为智障青少年寻求绝育的家庭的应对方案,该方案采用了一个针对残疾青少年的性教育和计划生育项目中已构建的多学科方法。在3年半的时间里,我们为20名患者实施了手术。基于医学诊断以及心理测量和心理社会成熟度评估,应用了绝育资格的具体标准。长期随访表明家长感到满意,子宫切除术后的患者上学出勤率提高,这些患者此前无法应对经期卫生问题,且术后没有出现抑郁,也没有性活动增加或性剥削的情况。
