dc.description.notesOutlines the methodology and results of a US study that compared specific physical health problems of abused women with a control group of women who had never been abused, but had the same level of access to health care facilities. The research to date relating to both short and long term health effects of domestic violence is reviewed and the absence of studies focusing on the health related effects of sexual assault highlighted. The findings suggest that women who are abused have a 50% to 70% greater chance of gynaecological, central nervous system and stress related health problems, with those who have experience sexual or physical abuse being more likely to report problems. Advocates the introduction of routine screening processes that ensure a sensitive and in-depth assessment, including questions about forced sex and warns against reliance on physical injuries as the sole indicator of abuse in clinical settings.en
