TI  - Screening for family and intimate partner violence: recommendation statement.
PG  - 156-60
AB  - This statement summarizes the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) 
      recommendations on screening for family and intimate partner violence based on 
      the USPSTF's examination of evidence specific to family and intimate partner 
      violence. It updates the 1996 recommendations contained in the Guide to Clinical 
      Preventive Services, second edition. In 1996, the USPSTF found insufficient 
      evidence to recommend for or against the use of specific instruments to detect 
      domestic violence (a "C" recommendation according to 1996 grade definitions). The 
      Task Force now uses an explicit process in which the balance of benefits and 
      harms is determined exclusively by the quality and magnitude of the evidence. As 
      a result, current letter grades are based on different criteria than those in 
      1996. Current explanations of the ratings and of the strength of overall evidence 
      are given in Appendix A and in Appendix B, respectively. The complete information 
      on which this statement is based, including evidence tables and references, is 
      available in the summary article and in the Systematic Evidence Review, 
      "Screening for Family and Intimate Partner Violence: Systematic Evidence Review 
      for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force." The USPSTF recommendations, the 
      accompanying summary article, and complete Systematic Evidence Review are 
      available through the USPSTF web site (http://www.preventiveservices.ahrq.gov). 
      The summary article and the USPSTF recommendation statement are available in 
      print through the AHRQ Publications Clearinghouse (call 1-800-358-9295 or e-mail 
      ahrqpubs@ahrq.gov).
