Prospective evaluation of intimate partner violence in fracture clinics (PRAISE-2): protocol for a multicentre pilot prospective cohort study

Abstract: BackgroundOne third of women experience intimate partner violence (IPV) in their lifetime. Orthopaedic health care professionals are in a good position to identify women experiencing escalating physical violence and act to promote their immediate safety, connect them to IPV resources, and reduce the risk of further harm. However, there have been no studies that explore whether experiencing a musculoskeletal injury can trigger or worsen IPV, and there have been no studies on how experiences of IPV affect orthop… Show more

“…The lifetime prevalence of IPV was identified by asking participants the three direct questions from the Woman Abuse Screening Tool [4], as used by PRAISE investigators [28, 34]: “In your lifetime, have you been physically abused by an intimate partner?,” “In your lifetime, have you been sexually abused by an intimate partner?,” and “In your lifetime, have you been emotionally abused by an intimate partner?” The three questions were repeated for the past year. Response options were “often,” “sometimes,” and “never.”…”

Due to the sensitive nature of the topic, only patients capable of providing consent for themselves were considered for participation 21 .…”
