Nurses play a key role in the provision of services in relation to sexuality in both primary and sexual and reproductive health-care. Given the intersection of sexualities with a range of social injustices, this study reviews research on nursing practice concerning sexuality from an emancipatory/social justice perspective. A systematic review of English articles published in nursing journals appearing on the Web of Science database from 2009 to 2014 was conducted. Thirty-eight articles met the inclusion criteria. Analysis consisted of a descriptive phase (types and location of studies, aspects of sexualities focused on, target health users and aspects of nursing practice focused on) and a critical/emancipatory phase. In terms of practice, our analysis revealed that: barriers exist to the integration of issues relating to sexuality in nursing practice; the social location of nurses and their personal feelings regarding sexuality influence their practice; content that addresses gendered norms and media that assist in communication underpin some emancipatory practices. Few studies locate analyses of nursing practice within gendered, cultural and social norms; consider advocacy as part of the practice of nurses; or analyse the promotion of health user participation in health services and structures. The implications for emancipatory practice are drawn out.

Sexual Health Communication Between Healthcare Professionals and Adolescents with Chronic Conditions in Western Countries: An Integrative Review

et al. 2019

Adolescent patients and healthcare professionals find it difficult to initiate the discussion on sexual health in consultations. The aim of this integrative review is to give an overview of determinants in the communication about sexual health between adolescents with chronic conditions, their parents, and their healthcare professionals. A systematic literature search for the period of January 2000 to October 2018 was conducted in four databases (Cinahl, Cochrane, PsycINFO, and Pubmed) and resulted in fifteen included studies. Four determinants were found in these studies: attitude, beliefs, knowledge, and self-efficacy. Patients, parents, and healthcare professionals experienced sexual health as a taboo topic and felt not comfortable talking about it. Both patients and professionals expressed a need to discuss sexual health, however personal and practical barriers withhold them from initiating the discussion. This in-depth overview suggests that all four determinants should be targeted to improve communication about sexual health in healthcare settings. Future research should be conducted to give more insight in the experiences and support needs of adolescent patients. On the long term, the discussion about sexual health should become normalized by improving knowledge, training, and support for healthcare professionals and integrating sexual health in education and hospital policies.
