Our Partner Lurie Children’s Hospital Launches the new app, called LCAST (Lurie Children’s Child Injury Plausibility Assessment Support Tool) aims to increase earlier recognition of abuse in babies and children under 4 years of age who have bruises, with the hope of decreasing the incidence of severe injury and death from child abuse in this age group.
The hospital launched the app in April, which coincides with National Child Abuse Prevention month.
