Intimate partner violence (IPV) is considered to be the leading cause of nonfatal injury to women worldwide. Moreover, the need for effective training for health care professionals (HCPs) and protocol for addressing IPV in health care contexts are well-documented. This article addresses key questions that radiologists may have related to supporting patients who have experienced IPV.
Peer-reviewed journal articles and other formal reports were located using Google Scholar and PubMed in order to assemble this review.
Radiologists are well-equipped to help identify possible instances of IPV if they are aware of the injury patterns commonly associated with IPV. Along with other HCPs, radiologists can also advocate for the implementation of protocols that will guide their responses to victims of IPV within their own health care institution.
亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)被认为是全球范围内女性非致命性伤害的主要原因。此外,为医疗保健专业人员(HCPs)提供有效培训以及在医疗保健环境中应对IPV的方案的必要性已有充分记录。本文探讨了放射科医生在支持遭受IPV的患者方面可能存在的关键问题。
为了撰写本综述,使用谷歌学术和PubMed检索了同行评审的期刊文章和其他正式报告。
如果放射科医生了解与IPV通常相关的损伤模式,他们就有充分的条件来帮助识别可能的IPV情况。与其他医疗保健专业人员一样,放射科医生还可以倡导实施相关方案,以指导他们在自己的医疗机构内对IPV受害者的应对措施。
