Educational Pearls:

  • Non-accidental trauma (NAT) to children is commonly missed by medical providers
  • Try to remember TEN-4-FACES as a useful aide for concerning patterns that may reflect NAT:
    • Torso, ears, neck and any bruising in child 4 months or longer
    • Frenulum, angle of the mandible, cheek, eyes, sclera
