摘要

Risk factors are well established, and preventive strategies have been effective in decreasing abusive parenting behaviors and child maltreatment incident reports. Curriculum tools are needed to incorporate these strategies into training programs so physicians are adequately trained to identify and prevent child maltreatment at the earliest opportunity.
