Abstract
The examination by which physicians achieve board certification in CAP should reflect the knowledge and skills required of the modern practitioner. The American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) assembled a 12-member volunteer panel of practicing child abuse pediatricians to conduct a practice analysis. In the first phase of the project, the panel identified and documented the practice domains, tasks, knowledge, and skills required for clinical practice. During the second phase, the panel organized testable knowledge areas into content domains and subdomains and updated the ABP CAP content outline. Feedback on the revised outline was requested from all ABP board-certified child abuse pediatricians via an online survey and results from the survey informed final revisions to the outline.
