In recent years, cases of
child abuse that result in
injuries and
death have occurred from
time to
time in
China, and there may be more undetected
child abuse cases. However, many
pediatricians and forensic doctors lack professional
knowledge and formal
training in detecting
child abuse, which leads to the
missed diagnosis,
misdiagnosis and misidentification of many cases of
child abuse. This
paper reviews a large number of relevant domestic and foreign
literatures, combined with practical
work experience and
China's national conditions, preliminarily summarizes the main points of
clinical diagnosis and forensic identification of
child abuse cases, in order to provide some help for early
detection, accurate identification of
child abuse cases and timely and effective
treatment and
protection for abused
children.
