Abstract
- The author reflects on the difficulties on reporting and notification and having substantial data from child protection agencies to monitor child maltreatment. Topics discussed include the mortality and hospital morbidity data as an alternative measure in gathering data, the suspected child abuse and neglect (SCAN) medical protocol, and broadening rules in coding to improve the capture of cases of child abuse.
