Abstract

This article highlights five important aspects of the clinical problem of evaluating young children who are suspected of having abusive head trauma: 1) the clinical questions to be addressed, 2) challenges when evaluating young children with suspected abuse, 3) key aspects of clinical practice and data collection, 4) a framework for decision-making and 5) key articles in the literature that can help inform a sound clinical decision about the likelihood of abuse.
