What is known:
• Most programs for primary prevention of abusive head trauma (AHT) focus on mothers shortly after delivery
• There are no analyses so far of the quality of education programs in the general public, as educating mothers might not be sufficient to reduce incidence rates
| |
What is new:
• Our study is the first population-based survey to measure the knowledge on AHT in a representative population sample and to provide the data base for targeted prevention programs.
• The introduction of broader prevention programs might be necessary.
