Description
Summary:Routine IPV screening is recommended by The Joint Commission, the American Medical Association, the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Nurses Association, and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2013). The USPSTF and the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care have also surmised there is insufficient evidence to support universal screening based on the limitations of screening approaches, the effectiveness of referral options, the paucity of evidence demonstrating a correlation between screening for IPV and positive health outcomes, and that there are few studies that evaluate the potential harm related to screening for IPV (Nelson, Nygren, & McInerney, 2004; Wathen, MacMillan, & Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care, 2003). [...]because of the complexity of IPV, there is no gold standard screening tool.
