What is the purpose of this research? This research focuses on identifying medical, social, and healthcare journey determinants associated with the evolution of quality of life in the transgender population at 12 months. To address the research question, it is planned to include 1,500 transgender individuals, among those attending healthcare professionals or associations in the French territory who have agreed to take on the role of investigators (professionals in healthcare or designated individuals within an association).
What does the research involve? In the proposed research, the investigators will assess quality of life through a standardized questionnaire. The investigators will analyse this quality of life in relation to various collected data concerning participants social context, medical data, mental health, transition journey, isolation and violence, as well as participants use of psychoactive substances.
In the framework of this research, an initial questionnaire will be administered at time T0, during participants appointment (either via video call or in person) with a health mediator. A second questionnaire will be administered 6 months later during a second appointment (via video call or in person) with a health mediator. Finally, a third and final questionnaire will be administered 12 months after T0 during a final appointment (via video call or in person) with a health mediator. The aim of these various questionnaires is to assess the evolution of quality of life over a period of 12 months. Each questionnaire will take a maximum of 40 minutes to complete.
What is the research timeline? The expected duration of the research is 2 years, and the participation will be for 12 months. If person agree to participate in this research, the course of the research will be as follows: A health mediator will schedule a video (or if impossible, in-person) interview with participant. Health mediators are professionals whose role is dedicated to reducing social health inequalities. They create interfaces between various stakeholders in the healthcare system and individuals facing challenges in their healthcare and prevention journeys due to various vulnerabilities. The goal is to assist these individuals in engaging with and successfully navigating these pathways, while considering their living environment. The first questionnaire will then be completed: some sections will be filled out by participants, while other questions will be asked directly by the health mediator. The health mediator will contact participants subsequently to arrange the 6-month and 12-month interviews, which will proceed in the same manner.
The maximum time between the presentation of the information note and the contact by the health mediator is 1 month.
