dc.description.notesThis brief comment highlights the prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) and the need to prioritise prevention and other responses by health professionals.<br/ ><br/ >There have been varying levels of support for identifying asymptomatic women through screening processes; however evidence of the value of such screening is equivocal. In a discussion of the WEAVE study, which utilised a randomised controlled trial method to measure the effectiveness of particular interventions (reported on by Hegarty et al., pp. 249-258 this issue of The Lancet) and two other studies from high income countries, Jewkes states that interventions following screening did not improve women’s health.<br/ ><br/ >Jewkes asserts that questioning patients about intimate partner violence is a valuable starting point but routine screening and treatment with a standard intervention is not adequate. She suggests new initiatives be used including psycho-behavioural interventions employed in an antenatal setting and screening for IPV perpetration by men followed by interventions designed to curb their use of violence.en
