肥胖是一种可能与医疗保健专业人员之间的偏见有关的医学状况,这种偏见可能导致对肥胖患者的不尊重或护理不足。妇产科医生定期为肥胖患者提供护理,并在倡导医疗保健最佳实践和优化肥胖患者的健康结果方面发挥不可或缺的作用。妇产科医师应准备照顾他们的病人与肥胖在一个不加判断的方式,认识到肥胖的医学和社会影响。本委员会意见已从其先前版本更新,重点关注医学界的肥胖偏见,并使用以人为本的语言而不是标签(即“肥胖患者”与“肥胖患者”)提供实用指导,以帮助妇产科医生提供有效,富有同情心的医疗护理,满足肥胖患者的需求。
Obesity is a medical condition that may be associated with bias among health care professionals, and this bias may result in disrespectful or inadequate care of patients with obesity. Obstetrician-gynecologists regularly care for patients with obesity and play an integral role in advocating for best practices in health care and optimizing health outcomes for patients with obesity. Obstetrician-gynecologists should be prepared to care for their patients with obesity in a nonjudgmental manner, being cognizant of the medical and societal implications of obesity. This Committee Opinion has been updated from its previous version to focus on obesity bias within the medical community and to provide practical guidance using people-first language instead of labels (ie, "patients with obesity" versus "obese patients") to help obstetrician-gynecologists deliver effective, compassionate medical care that meets the needs of patients with obesity.
