Should Health Professionals Screen All Women for Domestic Violence?

Ann Taket, C Nadine Wathen and Harriet MacMillan

PLOS Medicine, 2004, vol. 1, issue 1, 1-

Abstract: : The US and Canadian task forces on preventive health recently declared that there is not enough evidence to recommend for or against routine universal screening of women for domestic violence. Yet some experts argue that routine enquiry is justified. Experts from both sides of the Atlantic debate whether screening can be justified based on the available clinical evidence.
