| Abstract | ○ Domestic violence is more prevalent and possibly more deadly than other medical conditions for which we routinely screen; approximately 1.5 million women in the US are raped and/or physically assaulted by an intimate partner each year ○ Medical professionals feel underequipped to handle domestic violence; issues include fear of alienating the woman or of escalating the harm, and lack of knowledge, resources, and time. |
