Abstract
Child abuse refers to the deliberate or unintentional harm caused to a child, including physical, psychological maltreatment, as well as sexual abuse and neglect. Neglect is the most common type of maltreatment, involving the failure to adequately care for the needs of a child and may occur physically, psychologically, as well as within the medical care and education. The prevalence of neglect is followed by physical abuse and then sexual abuse. Child abuse is mainly perpetrated by the primary caregivers, with mental illnesses, substance abuse, domestic violence and a low socioeconomic status being a risk factor. Children that were born prematurely or suffer from chronic diseases or other disabilities, as well as those that have experienced abuse before, are at a higher risk for assault. Suggestive clues of child abuse include developmental delay, injuries in different stages of healing, and an unusual behavior of the child or parent. Even in the case of physical abuse, there might be no external manifestations, therefore pediatricians and emergency doctors should always be vigilant about child abuse and consider it as an alternative explanation.
