Child abuse by toxic substances is not easy to identify due to both the lack of signs of physical violence and the high incidence of accidental poisonings. Twelve cases of documented abuse, out of 6175 poisonings in children aged 0-13 years, were registered during 1975-1990 at Genova, Torino and Trieste Children Hospitals. In other 139 children the suspicion of abuse couldn't be confirmed. An early suspicion of abuse, is needed to prevent abuse and help the child and his family.
由于缺乏身体暴力迹象且意外中毒发生率高，有毒物质导致的儿童虐待不易识别。1975年至1990年期间，热那亚、都灵和的里雅斯特儿童医院登记了6175例0至13岁儿童中毒事件，其中有12例被证实为虐待。另有139名儿童的虐待嫌疑无法得到证实。需要尽早怀疑存在虐待行为，以防止虐待并帮助儿童及其家庭。
