| description |
The phenomenon of acute behavioral disturbance is an underrecognized and potentially life-threatening syndrome, and sometimes an emergency in psychiatric settings. Patients presenting to the Italian emergency department (ED) with acute behavioral disturbances account for approximately 3.2% of all ED visits. The spectrum of behaviors and signs overlap with many clinical disease processes. In addition to patients with behavioral problems related to mental disorders or substance abuse, there is also a large group whose behavioral emergencies directly result from medical illness. The complexity of these patients, as well as the interdisciplinary nature of their care, requires a clear and consensual framework for care. A network of Italian scientific societies developed ten reccomendations for good clinical practice. The main purpose is to draw up a document that presents a standardized method for the organization of the care of patients with acute behavioral disorders in ED
