abstract="Investigation and assessment work in non-accidental head injury cases is complex and challenging. This article discusses briefly the professional systems involved and the conditions necessary for effective practice. It then reviews briefly the literature on social factors in serious and fatal child abuse in order to provide a context for discussion of recent UK studies of non-accidental head injuries/shaken baby syndrome. The findings on social factors are compared and areas for further research are suggested. The article then considers how best to use the existing knowledge base about these cases within assessment frameworks currently in use and considers issues in presenting assessment conclusions to decision-makers.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
