American Medical Association Diagnostic and Treatment Guidelines on Child Physical Abuse and Neglect

Arch Fam Med. 1992;1(2):187-197.


Abstract

Child maltreatment has been endemic for generations. It is serious and life-threatening, affecting not only children but families and society as well. Every year, approximately 2 million children in the United States are seriously abused by their parents, guardians, or others, and at least 1000 children die as a result of their injuries.
