Standards of care are determined on the basis of all clinical data available for an individual case and are subject to change as scientific knowledge and technology advance and patterns of care evolve. Adherence to guidance recommendations will not ensure a successful outcome in every case, nor should they be construed as including all proper methods of care or excluding other acceptable methods of care aimed at the same results. The ultimate judgement must be made by the appropriate healthcare professional(s) responsible for clinical decisions regarding a particular clinical procedure or treatment plan. This judgement should only be arrived at following discussion of the options with the patient, covering the diagnostic and treatment choices available. It is advised, however, that significant departures from the national guidance or any local guidance derived from it should be fully documented in the patient\u2019s case notes at the time the relevant decision is taken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"nhsuk-card__description\">Click here for information and current research material relating to individuals born with differences of sex development and atypical genitalia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":40,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"subpage-promo-blocks-with-sidebar.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-42","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/42","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42"}],"version-history":[{"count":50,"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/42\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1488,"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/42\/revisions\/1488"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/40"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nn.nhs.scot\/sdsd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
