• The COVID-19 crisis resulted in a variety of physical and mental health issues beyond the viral infection itself, as indicated by an increase in domestic violence.• Radiologists should be aware of typical intimate partner violence (IPV) injury patterns, actively ask potential IPV victims about the cause of injury, and be familiar with support systems for IPV victims of their institutions.• Emergency and radiology departments should review their protocols for identifying and supporting IPV victims, and train their staff to work together to implement these measures during and beyond the COVID-19 crisis.
• COVID-19 危机除了病毒感染本身之外,还导致了各种身心健康问题,家庭暴力的增加就是一个例证。• 放射科医生应该了解典型的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)损伤模式,主动询问潜在的 IPV 受害者受伤的原因,并熟悉其机构中 IPV 受害者的支持系统。• 急诊和放射科应审查其识别和支持 IPV 受害者的方案,并培训其工作人员在 COVID-19 危机期间和之后共同努力实施这些措施。
