Abstract

Purpose of review: Although healthcare providers are increasingly interested in addressing their female patient's sexual wellbeing in a holistic fashion, most do not receive training in how to conceptualize the complex interactions between mind, body and spirit that drive health and wellness, let alone how to apply empirical data in any of these dimensions to their individual patients. Here, we present a simple mind-body-spirit model, grounded in an integrative medicine approach, to help translate research on sexual functioning and satisfaction into a shared decision-making plan for the management and enhancement of women's sexual wellness.

Recent findings: In considering the dimensions of physical and behavioral health, spirituality and sensuality, physicians can help women orient to the ways in which their sexual healthcare can address their core values and connection to others, which in turn can improve sexual satisfaction. The application of the model is outlined in a case study.

Summary: Too often female sexual wellbeing is not discussed in the medical setting and this mind-body-spirit model is a tool that health care providers could use address this important aspect of well-being.

女性性健康医疗管理的身心-精神模式。

审查目的：尽管医疗服务提供者对以综合方式解决女性患者的性健康问题越来越感兴趣，但大多数人并没有接受过培训，不知道如何从概念上理解推动健康和福祉的心、身、灵之间复杂的相互作用，更不用说如何将这些方面的经验数据应用到他们的患者身上了。在此，我们以综合医学方法为基础，提出了一个简单的身心-精神模型，以帮助将有关性功能和性满足的研究转化为管理和提高女性性健康的共同决策计划：最近的研究结果：考虑到生理和行为健康、精神和感性等方面，医生可以帮助女性确定性保健的方向，从而解决她们的核心价值和与他人的联系问题，进而提高性满意度。摘要：医疗机构通常不会讨论女性的性健康问题，而这种身心-精神模式是医疗服务提供者可以用来解决这一重要健康问题的工具。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
