The study piloted an intimate partner violence (IPV) screening tool for use with female patients by professional nurses in primary health facilities. Utilising a one group, pre-test post-test design, one hundred and twenty-eight participants completed the pre-test measure (all females; age range = 40 to 50 years; with 15< years of work experience). As part of the study, they completed a brief 20-minute training session in IPV screening. Following the 20-minute training, the participants were provided with the IPV screening tool to use for a period of three-months. Sixty-three participants completed the post-test (all females; age range = 40 to 50 years; 11 to 15 years of work experience). At post-test, the nurses scored marginally higher on knowledge about IPV (n₁ = 128, 8,17±8,83) as well as on practices (such as screening for IPV: n₂ =63, 2,44±2,68). Although the training effect was indiscernible, nurses trained in IPV screening would provide better quality care to female patients at risk for IPV compared to those without training.

该研究试行了亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）筛查工具，供初级保健机构中的专业护士用于女性患者。通过一组测试前的测试后设计，一百二十八名参与者完成了测试前的测量（所有女性；年龄范围为40至50岁；具有15年以下的工作经验）。作为研究的一部分，他们完成了为时20分钟的简短IPV筛选培训课程。经过20分钟的培训，向参与者提供了IPV筛选工具，可使用三个月。六十三名参与者完成了测试（所有女性；年龄范围= 40至50岁； 11至15年的工作经验）。在测试后，护士对IPV的知识得分略高（n ₁ = 128，8,17±8,83）以及练习（例如IPV筛查：n ₂ = 63，2,44±2,68）。尽管培训效果是无法区分的，但与未接受培训的护士相比，接受过IPV筛查培训的护士将为处于IPV风险的女性患者提供更好的护理质量。
