Child exposure to trauma: comparative effectiveness of interventions addressing maltreatment. Rockville: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Comparative Effectiveness Review No. 89. 2013 Authors' objectives (1) To assess the comparative effectiveness of interventions (psychosocial and/or pharmacological) for children age 0 to 14 exposed to maltreatment in addressing child wellbeing outcomes (mental and behavioral health; caregiver-child relationship; cognitive, language, and physical development; school-based functioning) and child welfare outcomes (safety, placement stability, and permanency); (2) To assess the comparative effectiveness of interventions (a) with different treatment characteristics, (b) for child and caregiver subgroups, and (c) for engaging and retaining children and/or caregivers in treatment; and (3) To assess harms associated with interventions for this population. Authors' conclusions This review serves as an urgent call for improving and building the evidence base for interventions to promote the well-being of maltreated children. A multisite research network is a powerful platform that could facilitate the conduct of large, methodologically rigorous comparative efficacy and effectiveness trials needed to move the field forward. More broadly, a paradigm shift is required on the part of researchers and funders alike to galvanize the commitment and resources necessary for conducting collaborative clinical trials with these particularly vulnerable children and families.
