Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of emotional, sexual or physical violence reported by women delivered at the University Hospital Geneva, a tertiary care university teaching hospital, where about 3,000 women are delivered each year. This study showed that prevalence of violence against women is high, and is severely underestimated by health case providers.
