Diseño y validación del Cuestionario de Función Sexual del Hombre, FSH / Design and validation of a Male Sexual Function Questionnaire

OBJETIVO: Diseñar y validar el cuestionario de Función Sexual del Hombre, FSH, en lengua española, siguiendo los criterios del Manual Diagnóstico y Estadístico de los Trastornos Mentales, DSM-5, para el diagnóstico de las disfunciones sexuales. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal y multicéntrico, realizado en 163 hombres (18-70 años) que autocumplimentaron un test (cuestionario FSH preliminar), respondiendo después una anamnesis estructurada sobre función sexual del hombre (AFSH). Cuatro semanas más tarde autocumplimentaron un retest, igual al test pero con una pregunta suplementaria sobre posible influencia de acontecimientos recientes. RESULTADOS: Consistencia interna: α de Cronbach test 0,840; AFSH 0,835; retest 0,855. Fiabilidad test-retest: puntuaciones medias del test 33,13±6,566; retest 33,11±6,791; t de Student 0,122, no significativa (p = 0,903); correlación puntuaciones totales test-retest (coeficiente correlación intraclase) 0,979, correlación significativa (p < 0,01); correlaciones puntuaciones totales test-AFSH (coeficiente correlación intraclase) 0,966, correlación significativa (p < 0,01). Concordancia: entre preguntas del test-AFSH (índice Kappa) mínima 0,749; máxima 0,934; entre preguntas del test-retest 0,724; 0,844. Validez de contenidos mediante consenso de expertos. Validez de criterio: especificidad>90% para todos los ítems/dominios, sensibilidad>80% salvo ítem 4 (76%). Validez de constructo: mediante análisis factorial, agrupación de ítems en 4 componentes (explican el 75% de varianza); elevada correlación entre «deseo sexual» y «confianza en la erección». CONCLUSIONES: El cuestionario FSH es fiable, estable y válido, siendo su especificidad y sensibilidad altas. Evalúa la respuesta sexual del hombre describiendo aspectos de interés: ansiedad anticipatoria, iniciativa, confianza para comunicar preferencias, acontecimientos que puedan influir. Puede detectar disfunción sexual en la pareja

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work was to design and validate a questionnaire on Male Sexual Function (MSF) in the Spanish language, following the criteria contemplated in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-5, for the diagnosis of sexual dysfunctions. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional and multicentre study was conducted on 163 men (18-70 years) who self-completed a test (MSF questionnaire). They then answered questions on the Structured History of Male Sexual Function (AMSF). Four weeks later they completed a re-test, which was the same, but including a supplementary question about the possible influence of recent events. RESULTS: Internal consistency: Cronbach's α test 0.840, AMSF 0.835, retest 0.855. Test-retest reliability: mean test scores 33.13±6.566, retest 33.11±6.791; Student t 0.122, not significant (P=.903); correlation total test-retest scores (intraclass correlation coefficient) 0.979, significant correlation (P<.01); total correlations test-AMSF scores (intraclass correlation coefficient) 0.966, significant correlation (P<.01). Concordance: between questions of the AMSF test (Kappa index) minimum 0.749, maximum 0.934; between test-retest questions: 0.724, 0.844. Content validity using expert consensus. Criteria validity: specificity>90% for all items / domains, sensitivity>80% except item 4 (76%). Content validity: using factor analysis, grouping of items into 4 components (explain 75% variance); high correlation between "sexual desire" and "confidence in erection". CONCLUSIONS: The MSF questionnaire is reliable, stable and valid, with high specificity and sensitivity. It evaluates the sexual response of the male, describing aspects of interest: anticipatory anxiety, initiative, confidence to communicate preferences, events that may influence. Can detect sexual dysfunction in the couple

[Design and validation of the second edition of the Women's Sexual Function Questionnaire, FSM-2]. / Diseño y validación de la segunda edición del Cuestionario de Función Sexual de la Mujer, FSM-2.

OBJECTIVE: To design and validate the second edition of the Female Sexual Function questionnaire (FSF-2). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional and multicentre study was conducted on 187 women (18-70 years) who completed a test (preliminary questionnaire FSF-2), and then answered a structured anamnesis on female sexual function. Four weeks later they completed a retest, which was equal to the test but with an additional question about possible influence of recent events in their sex life. RESULTS: The mean age of the women was 43.51 years. Internal consistency of the questionnaire: Cronbach's α of the 0.919 test, of structured anamnesis 0.921, of the 0.920 retest. Test-retest reliability: mean test scores 30.53 ± 8.605, retest 30.05 ± 8.770, without significant differences. Correlation between total test and retest scores (intraclass correlation coefficient) 0.960, significant (P<.01); between total test scores and structured anamnesis 0.977, significant (P<.01). Concordance between test questions and structured anamnesis (kappa index), minimum 0.706, maximum 0.915; between test and retest questions, minimum 0.630, maximum 0.802. Content validity by expert consensus. Criteria validity: specificity of the questionnaire exceeding 90% for all items/domains, sensitivity greater than 80%, except for items 5, 6, 9 (70-80%). Validity of the construct through factor analysis, grouping of items into 2 components (they explain 66.586% of variance). CONCLUSIONS: The FSF-2 questionnaire is reliable and valid. It evaluates the sexual response of women, describing important aspects of their sexual activity as a couple: anticipatory anxiety, initiative, confidence to communicate, preferences and events that may influence. It can detect sexual dysfunction in the couple.

Intervención sexológica en eyaculación precoz / Sexological intervention on premature ejaculation

Las estrategias, recomendaciones y técnicas propuestas por la terapia sexual para la intervención en la eyaculación precoz han representado, desde hace casi 4 décadas, el modelo más eficaz de intervención en esta disfunción sexual, que actualmente se ve complementado por la eficacia del tratamiento farmacológico con dapoxetina. Tanto los últimos estudios como la experiencia clínica sustentan que la intervención combinada ofrece los mejores resultados terapéuticos. Además hay que tener en cuenta que en la terapia sexual, el diagnóstico etiológico se obtiene del análisis de la interrelación de la pareja. La intervención, tanto diagnóstica como terapéutica, tiene que estar centrada siempre en la relación, por lo que las técnicas y recursos que se apliquen indistintamente a uno u otro miembro de la pareja, lo serán en el contexto de dicha relación o con la expectativa de ser implementadas en la interacción sexual. Será, por tanto, la relación la que reciba el tratamiento, incluso si se utilizase medicación para uno de los miembros de la pareja. Por otro lado, este modelo de intervención puede ser implementado por un profesional con formación, aunque no sea necesariamente un especialista

It will therefore be the relationship that receive treatment, even if medication is used for one of the members of the couple.

La anamnesis en la historia clínica en salud sexual: habilidades y actitudes / The medical history taking in sexual health: skills and attitudes

Una vida sexual satisfactoria repercute de manera favorable en la calidad de vida, existiendo evidencia de que previene múltiples procesos orgánicos y de que las disfunciones sexuales constituyen a menudo un signo precoz de enfermedad orgánica oculta (cardiovascular, endocrinológica o neurológica). Existen dificultades para realizar la anamnesis sexual por parte del profesional, del paciente o del sistema de salud, sin embargo, dada su importancia, es necesario que el médico adopte una actitud de búsqueda activa, sobre todo entre la población de riesgo. Para realizarla es necesario que la situación sea propicia (sentido de la oportunidad), preservando la confidencialidad del encuentro, y se llevará a cabo con naturalidad, empatía, adoptando una actitud de escucha activa, cuidando el lenguaje no verbal, sin emitir juicios de valor y recurriendo a la asertividad para superar las resistencias. En esta publicación se propone una pauta para realizarla adecuadamente (AU)

A sexual satisfactory life favourably affects quality of life, there being evidence that shows there are multiple organic processes of which sexual dysfunction is often a precocious sign of underlying organic disease (cardiovascular, endocrinological or neurological). Difficulties exist in recording the sexual anamnesis on the part of the professional, the patient, or by the health system. Nevertheless, given its importance, it is necessary for the doctor to adopt an attitude of active search, especially among the population of risk. To do this, it is necessary that the situation is propitious (sense of the opportunity), preserving the confidentiality of the meeting, and it will be carried out naturally and with empathy, adopting a listening attitude, taking into account the non-verbal language, without issuing valued judgments, and resorting to assertivity to overcome the resistances. This article proposes guidelines to perform an anamnesis adequately (AU)
