    Abstract:
    Intentional trauma has become a significant threat to the health and well-being of all American children. Clinical management of a critically injured child represents a distinctive challenge for the pediatric trauma team. The critical care nurse is an integral part of this team and plays a vital role in the ongoing assessment and management of this unique population. This article presents the patterns of nonaccidental injuries in children and provides strategies for nursing practice in the critical care environment.
