IPV affects men and women from all socioeconomic strata, professions, locations, and cultural backgrounds. Women visiting outpatient medical and obstetric/gynecologic clinics as well as the emergency department (ED) are often there for complaints directly attributable to IPV. Because they are frequently misdiagnosed, they may return time and time again, often with increasingly severe trauma. In addition to increased morbidity and mortality of victims, IPV confers a tremendous financial burden in the United States. The total annual costs related to IPV are estimated to be between $2 and $7 billion, and the CDC estimates that the lifetime costs are up to $36 trillion, including medical expenditures, lost productivity among victims and perpetrators, criminal justice costs, and property loss or other damage.
