Abstract

Standards of care have recently been established for the diagnosis and treatment of child abuse. This article addresses the key areas of treatment with which each primary care physician should be acquainted. As part of a community-based approach to this problem, the physician can positively impact the prognosis for the victimized child and his or her family.
