Paediatric nurses' identification of violence against children.
[child syndrome]
This
paper
is
a
report
of
an
evaluation
of
paediatric
nurses
'
assessment
and
diagnostic
skills
and
interventions
used
for
child
maltreatment
.
The
use
of
violence
against
children
occurs
in
all
environments
worldwide
.
Therefore
,
broader
theoretical
and
practical
knowledge
related
to
this
issue
is
needed
in
health
care
to
facilitate
more
accurate
identification
of
child
maltreatment
in
order
to
instigate
implementation
of
appropriate
care
for
these
children
.
The
study
was
based
on
cross-sectional
data
obtained
with
a
convenience
sample
of
160
Registered
Nurses
employed
at
paediatric
wards
at
two
large
cities
in
Poland
(
response
rate
80
%
)
.
Data
collection
took
place
between
December
2005
and
March
2006
.
The
research
tool
was
a
questionnaire
form
designed
on
the
basis
of
international
literature
concerning
battered
child
syndrome
.
Battered
child
syndrome
seems
to
be
a
relatively
common
phenomenon
,
as
a
great
majority
of
participants
(
86
·
25
%
)
had
encountered
it
in
their
practice
.
The
form
of
child
maltreatment
which
was
most
often
mentioned
(
by
30
·
00
%
of
participants
)
was
neglect
.
Almost
three
-
quarters
of
the
nurses
(
61
·
25
%
;
n
=
98
)
said
that
they
had
been
involved
in
providing
care
for
a
maltreated
child
.
Nurses
should
work
with
maltreated
children
on
an
individualized
basis
,
combined
with
interdisciplinary
cooperation
with
specialists
from
related
disciplines
concerned
with
the
issue
.
There
appears
to
be
a
need
for
specialized
training
for
nurses
to
increase
their
competence
in
working
with
maltreated
children
and
their
families
.
