Abstract
Abusive head trauma (AHT), commonly known as "shaken infant syndrome" is a severe form of child abuse characterized by the triad of acute encephalopathy, retinal hemorrhages, and cerebral hemorrhage, leading to high mortality and neurological complications. Many caregivers are unaware of the risks associated with shaking an infant, making prevention efforts essential. Our center observed an increase in AHT cases from late 2021 to early 2022, prompting the creation of a regional prevention campaign. This initiative introduced a scannable quick response (QR) code linking easily accessible educational materials on AHT prevention and parenting resources that promote safer caregiving practices.
