【 摘 要 】
Objective: To identify the types of violence against children reported in a city in the state of Piauí in 2017. Methods: This is an exploratory, descriptive, and quantitative approach of applied nature developed at the regional hospital of the municipality of Floriano, Piauí, Brazil. The sample consisted of 181 compulsory notification reports of child violence registered in 2017. Data were collected through a script based on the notification form being developed from September 2017 to July 2018. Results: The prevalent type of violence was negligence (80.66%), and recurrence was absent in 87.3%. There were 6.63% of cases of isolated or associated sexual violence, such as physical and psychological, of which sexual harassment predominated (25%). Conclusions: The true perception of the dimension of child violence is still insufficient, since data are often only a small part of reality. The results of the research made possible the direction and reference for the elaboration of actions that aimed to confront violence against children by knowing the profile of the affected victims.
