Article Synopsis
- Violence in interpersonal relationships (IPV) poses significant health and social challenges in the U.S., leading to physical, behavioral, and cognitive issues, with a particular focus on emergency department visits from 2002 to 2015.
- The study revealed that women aged 15 and older made over 2.5 million emergency department visits related to IPV during this period, with the number of visits rising, but no significant differences across race, ethnicity, or region were found.
- The implementation of the Affordable Care Act was linked to an increase in IPV-related ED claims covered by private insurance, while many women still faced out-of-pocket costs prior to the law's enactment.*

However, they often have inadequate knowledge about IPV and lack self-efficacy and confidence to be able to screen for IPV and communicate effectively with patients.
Objective: The aim of this study was to develop and test the usability of a blended learning system aimed at educating nurse practitioner students on topics related to IPV (ie, the mPOWERED system [Health Equity Institute]).
