battered child syndrome: Term introduced in 1962 by C. Henry Kempe, M.D., in the Journal of the American Medical Association in an article describing a combination of physical and other signs indicating that a child's internal and/or external injuries result from acts committed by a parent or caretaker. In some states, the battered child syndrome has been judicially recognized as an accepted medical diagnosis. Frequently this term is misused or misunderstood as the only type of child abuse and neglect. 3, record 1, English, - battered%20child%20syndrome

O. Kempe, B. Steele et C. Pollock ont été les premiers à décrire le syndrome de l'enfant maltraité. Ils estiment que dans la majorité des cas, les carences d'apports physiques ou psychologiques sont associées aux gestes de violence. Ces carences ont pour origine l'insuffisance, la distorsion, et la discontinuité des interactions parents-enfants. 1, record 1, French, - syndrome%20de%20l%27enfant%20maltrait%C3%A9
