Routine screening for abuse during pregnancy is crucial. Early detection and intervention, including case management and multi-agency collaboration, are vital to prevent ongoing violence and trauma for pregnant women.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Public Health
  • Social Work

Background:

  • Routine screening for abuse during pregnancy is recommended to address violence and prevent trauma.
  • Failure to assess for abuse leaves violence undetected, increasing risks for pregnant women.
  • Lack of follow-up interventions perpetuates the cycle of violence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To emphasize the necessity of routine abuse assessment in pregnant women.
  • To highlight the importance of timely and effective interventions.
  • To advocate for the integration of comprehensive strategies into standard prenatal care.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing recommendations and literature on abuse screening in pregnancy.
  • Analysis of the impact of undetected abuse and inadequate interventions.
