Description

Annually, 14–41 per 100 000 infants get mildly to lethally injured or severely disabled through violent shaking. The incidence and mortality of inflicted head injury by shaking trauma (IHI-ST) are highest in the early months and decrease with age. This may partly be due to the age-related physical characteristics of infants.
