No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Physical abuse is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the general child population. There are no data specific to the French child care and protection systems, and very few studies have examined the optimality of protective measures following a diagnosis of child physical abuse. the investigators propose to conduct a confidential, prospective, population-based study, in order to assess the frequency of suboptimal care, to describe the typology of suboptimal care, to assess the immediate consequences of suboptimal care on the health of the child, and to identify the determinants of suboptimal care.
