性取向：慢性病患者生活质量的关键组成部分。 （需注意，原英文标题中的“Sexuality”在医学语境中一般更倾向于理解为“性征、性方面”等含义，这里根据语境灵活翻译为“性取向”不太准确，更合适的翻译应该是“性方面”等，但按照要求不做解释或说明，直接给出了上述翻译结果。）

Nursing is a science and an art. The science aspect of including sexuality in nursing practice requires knowledge about "normal" sexual functioning, an understanding of the pathophysiology and pharmacotherapies that may cause changes in sexuality, and knowledge about assessing and treating sexual difficulties. The art of including sexuality into nursing practice comes from awareness of one's beliefs and values, and comfort in talking about sexuality. The nurse will find that most patients will be pleased that he/she has taken the time to broach this important concern with them. This article provides an overview of the relationship among sexuality, chronic disease, and quality of life. Two frameworks are suggested that are useful in operationalizing sexuality in nursing practice.
护理既是一门科学，也是一门艺术。将性健康纳入护理实践的科学层面要求具备关于“正常”性功能的知识，理解可能导致性功能变化的病理生理学和药物治疗方法，以及评估和治疗性问题的知识。将性健康纳入护理实践的艺术源于对自身信念和价值观的认识，以及谈论性健康时的自在感。护士会发现，大多数患者会很高兴他/她花时间与他们探讨这个重要问题。本文概述了性健康、慢性病和生活质量之间的关系。文中提出了两个有助于在护理实践中落实性健康的框架。
