title: [The pediatric team in the presence of physical cruelty to and severe affective deprivation of children].
abstract: From a study of 50 cases the authors suggest a more suitable approach for paediatricians to the problems of battered babies and children with severe emotional deprivation. A multidisciplinary team is recommended in which everyone is involved and not just specialised personel. The study shows the frequency of emotional deprivation of children in care and the possibility offered by adoption. Local psychiatric support is often needed for parents who do not ask for help. The need to make long term arrangements during hospital admission requires an interdisciplinary team with close links between the paediatric team and other child welfare services.
