Best Clinical Practices for Male Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse: “Do No Harm”. The Permanente Journal, 18(3), 82-87.http://www.thepermanentejournal.org/files/Summer2014/SexualAbuse.pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/11212/1593The health care literature describes treatment challenges and recommended alterations in practice procedures for female survivors of childhood sexual abuse, a subtype of adverse childhood experiences. Currently, there are no concomitant recommendations for best clinical practices for male survivors of childhood sexual abuse or other adverse clinical experiences. Anecdotal information suggests ways physicians can address the needs of adult male survivors of childhood sexual abuse by changes in communication, locus of control, and consent/permission before and during physical examinations and procedures. The intent of this article is to act as a catalyst for improved patient care and more research focused on the identification and optimal responses to the needs of men with adverse childhood experiences in the health care setting.en-UStreatmentsurvivorsmale victimsclinical practiceArticle
