Abstract

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a common global problem. Forms of IPV can be physical, sexual and emotional abuse that can occur during pregnancy. IPV can have short-term and long-term effects on both mother and baby. The role of health workers is needed to optimize IPV screening in pregnant women. The purpose of this scoping review is to explore the extent of experience and implementation of IPV screening by midwives. This scoping review uses the Arksey and O'Malley five-step framework. The article search strategy uses PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCO, Wiley, ProQuest from 2009 to 2019. The critical appraisal used is the Mix Methods Appraisal Tools (MMAT). Eight articles were selected, there are five article had grade A and three article had grade B. Three themes found as a result of this scoping review illustrate the benefits and obstacles of screening, as well as the strategy for improving screening. The benefits of screening can increase community and midwife awareness of IPV. They find barriers to knowledge, skills, policies and self-security. They can implement strategies by increasing knowledge, skills, attitudes and Interprofessional Collaboration.
