ReviewA Scoping Review of Published Intimate Partner Violence Curricula for Medical Trainees.
Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects many, and health care has the potential to provide a safe space for individuals experiencing IPV. However, physicians cite lack of time and education as barriers. The aim of this study is to complete a review of published IPV curricula in medical school, residency training, and postresidency training. ⋯ There was great variation in the methods of assessing effectiveness of IPV curricula. Published IPV curricula are varied, without consistent validated tools for assessing efficacy. Future initiatives to establish a standard of competency for medical students regarding IPV, including a standard curriculum, may better ensure that physicians are capable of identifying and caring for individuals who have experienced IPV.
