本文检讨性健康的不同方面与性健康指标的衡量有关，并建议对《国际疾病分类》进行修改，以解决与性健康和性健康有关的问题，目的是为卫生政策的制定和方案拟订提供信息。缺乏监测和评估性健康结果的机制阻碍了支持性健康的政策和方案的制定。ICD-11变化的潜在影响是重大和深远的，因为ICD被各国用来定义资格和获得卫生服务的机会，并制定相关的政策和法律，并被卫生专业人员用作确定卫生条件、治疗和结果的概念的基础。改进与性健康有关的指标的衡量，建立在性、性、性健康和权利的科学知识基础上的证据。随着我们站在2015年后时代的尖端，发展议程向可持续发展目标过渡，一个独特的机会出现了，可以进一步思考性健康是如何定义、概念化和监控性健康的。(C)2015年生殖健康问题。爱思唯尔出版公司出版。版权所有。
This paper examines different dimensions of sexual health as related to the measurement of sexual health indicators and the proposed changes in the International Classification of Diseases to address issues related to sexuality and sexual health with an aim of informing health policy-making and programming. The lack of mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating sexual health outcomes has impeded the development of policies and programmes that support sexual health. The potential impact of changes to the ICD-11 is major and far-reaching given that the ICD is used by countries to define eligibility and access to health services and to formulate relevant policies and laws, and is used by health professionals as a basis for conceptualizing health conditions, treatments and outcomes. Improving the measurement of sexual health-related indicators builds the evidence base on scientific knowledge of sex, sexuality, sexual health and rights. As we stand on the cusp of the post-2015 era and the development agenda transitions to the Sustainable Development Goals, a unique opportunity presents itself to further consider how sexual health is defined, conceptualized, and monitored.
