[Pharmacological and multimodal care of the adult patient with psychiatric presentation in the emergency department]

Abstract

The pharmacological management of patients with psychiatric presentations, on prescription, and by nurses in emergency medicine structures is based on knowledge of a limited number of molecules and their methods of administration. This is accompanied by a relational approach and techniques to ensure the safety of the teams in the case of an agitated or very resistant patient.
