The initial examination after sexual assault is both a clinical emergency and a medico-legal task. Begin with stabilisation and trauma-informed care: ensure privacy, safety, pain control, and a calm, non-judgmental approach. Obtain separate informed consent (or informed refusal) for examination, sample collection, treatment, and police intimation, and re-check consent before invasive steps. With children, pair guardian consent with the child’s assent and avoid sedation unless clinically necessary.
