There's a continuing debate about how best to give care to youth who identify as trans MedTwitter
Some members of the American Academy of Pediatrics say its association leadership is blocking discussion about a resolution asking for a"rigorous systematic review" of gender-affirming care guidelines.
Five AAP members, which has a total membership of around 67,000 pediatricians in the United States and Canada, this year penned Resolution 27, calling for a possible update of the guidelines following consultation with stakeholders that include mental health and medical clinicians, parents, and patients"with diverse views and experiences."
That's why comments were not allowed on Resolution 27, said Mark Del Monte, the AAP's CEO. A second attempt to get sponsorship during the annual leadership forum, held earlier this month in Chicago, also failed, he noted. Del Monte toldthat changes to the resolution process are made every year and that no rule changes were directly associated with Resolution 27.
In an email allowing members to comment on a resolution regarding education support for caring for transgender patients, 23 chose to support Resolution 27 instead.
