医学界为解决亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)所做的努力往往忽视了女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性人(LGBT)群体。异性恋女性是IPV筛查和干预的主要目标,尽管LGBT人群中IPV的患病率相似,并对健康产生有害影响。在这里,我们强调了IPV在LGBT关系中的负担,讨论了LGBT和异性恋IPV的不同之处,并概述了临床医生可以采取的步骤来解决LGBT患者的IPV。
The medical community's efforts to address intimate partner violence (IPV) have often neglected members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population. Heterosexual women are primarily targeted for IPV screening and intervention despite the similar prevalence of IPV in LGBT individuals and its detrimental health effects. Here, we highlight the burden of IPV in LGBT relationships, discuss how LGBT and heterosexual IPV differ, and outline steps clinicians can take to address IPV in their LGBT patients.
