Objective: A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify measures used to evaluate developmental outcomes after abusive head trauma (AHT), as well as describe outcomes among those with AHT, and explore factors and interventions influencing such outcomes. Design: This systematic review adheres to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines. The protocol is in PROSPERO, registration number CRD42020179592. On April 17, 2020, OVID Medline, Embase, OVID PsycINFO, Web of Science, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were searched (since inception). Inclusion criteria included original, peer-reviewed study data; AHT exposure; infants younger than 24 months at time of AHT; and evaluation of developmental outcomes. Reviewers independently evaluated studies for inclusion and assessed risk of bias using the Effective Public Health Practice Project quality assessment tool for quantitative studies. A descriptive synthesis approach was utilized as variability of study designs, follow-up periods, and outcome assessment tools precluded a meta-analytic approach. Results: Fifty-nine studies were included; 115 assessment tools were used to evaluate developmental outcomes; and 42 studies examined factors influencing outcomes. Two studies evaluated interventions. Five percent of studies (n = 3) were rated low risk of bias. Conclusions: Notable variation was observed in terms of case ascertainment criteria. Developmental outcomes after AHT have been assessed in a manner that limits understanding of how AHT impacts development, as well as the efficacy of interventions intended to improve outcomes. Researchers and clinicians are encouraged to adopt consistent diagnostic and assessment approaches.

Parental Knowledge and Awareness about Shaken Baby Syndrome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: Despite the serious consequences of shaken baby syndrome (SBS), previous studies revealed a low level of knowledge among Saudi parents. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. An electronic questionnaire was distributed through social media platforms to parents of pediatric age group children in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. A total of 524 responses were received. Data about participants’ demographics, knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding SBS were collected through convenient random sampling. Results: A total of 524 responses were received; 30.7% of the participants were familiar with SBS. The Internet and the social media platforms were the most common sources of information. There was no statistically significant correlation between knowledge levels and participants’ sociodemographic factors; only 32.3% of individuals had good knowledge. Of them, 84% had a positive attitude towards learning more about SBS, and 40.1% and 34.3% were interested in learning more about SBS before and during pregnancy, respectively. Carrying the baby and shaking were the actions most frequently taken when a baby was crying. Of them, 23.9% forcefully shake their child, while 41.4% of them throw their infant up in the air and catch it. Conclusions: It is important to conduct health education programs on SBS for mothers throughout the prenatal period.

“…To our knowledge, there are only a few case reports of SBS in Turkey. [20][21][22] One multi-centre study retrospectively reviewed 345 infants with subdural or subarachnoid bleeding, lethargy, coma, skull fracture or retinal haemorrhage: 22% of injuries were inflicted but only three of the 345 were diagnosed as SBS during their hospital stay. 23 Because there were no prevention programmes in Turkey in 2009, a member of the Turkish team contacted the Western Sydney team through ISPCAN listserv -a members' e-mail group through which members can post ideas and requests.…”

Caring for young infants can be stressful. Non-accidental brain or head injury (shaken baby syndrome) is a result of parental stress, and a lack of knowledge of how to respond to a crying infant and the dangers of shaking a child. This article demonstrates the value of international collaboration in projects to prevent child maltreatment. It includes reports of prevention of shaken baby syndrome programmes in Australia, Hungary, Greece, Brazil and Turkey.
