Physical abuse is experienced by approximately 20% of children in Denmark. Healthcare workers issue less than 20% of all reports suspecting physical child abuse to responsible authorities. Insufficient knowledge and other barriers may partly explain this low percentage. Recognition and adequate handling by referral to child protective teams and reporting to local authorities are of paramount importance to prevent mortality, physical and mental morbidity. With this review we hope to enlighten Danish healthcare workers and thereby ensure a qualified course of action for children, who have been subjected to physical abuse.
丹麦约20%的儿童遭受过身体虐待。在所有怀疑儿童遭受身体虐待的报告中，医护人员向相关当局提交的报告不到20%。知识不足和其他障碍可能部分解释了这一低比例的原因。通过转介给儿童保护团队并向地方当局报告来进行识别和妥善处理，对于预防死亡、身体和精神疾病至关重要。通过本综述，我们希望能启发丹麦的医护人员，从而确保为遭受身体虐待的儿童采取恰当的行动。
