To investigate whether cases of possible non-accidental injury as identified using five risk indicators give rise to any subjective concerns of child abuse.
Questionnaires were completed by the triage nurse and attending doctor for every child attending the general hospitals of the North Western Health Board, with an injury, during a six month period. The questionnaires included an assessment of subjective concerns about the injury occurrence and five risk indicators of child abuse.
Children presenting with an injury who had two or more positive indicators failed to raise subjective concerns in the attending emergency department staff.
The introduction of a policy of identifying positive indicators from the five risk indicators of child abuse needs additional computer support within emergency departments.
调查使用五个风险指标确定的可能的非意外伤害病例是否引发对虐待儿童的任何主观担忧。
在六个月期间，分诊护士和主治医生为西北卫生委员会综合医院每一位受伤儿童填写问卷。问卷包括对受伤情况的主观担忧评估以及五个虐待儿童风险指标。
有两个或更多阳性指标的受伤儿童并未引起急诊部门主治工作人员的主观担忧。
在急诊部门引入从五个虐待儿童风险指标中识别阳性指标的政策需要额外的计算机支持。
