Abstract

The pathologic behavioural risk comprises both psychiatric emergencies and an extensive area of processes in the evolution of which may occur situation of severe prejudice for the patient and his environmental relations. The medical significance of these situations emerges from a clear understanding of the notional medical emergency and the present-day extension of psychiatric care through which aggravations and crises which disturb or endanger life and the conditions of the values promoted by him may be brought into relief and anticipated. Both psychiatric emergency and the pathologic behavioural risk appear as a common element of dangerousness, a feature that can not be generalized or replaced with mental illness. The medical and relational significance of pathological behavioural risk contributes to the accuracy of the content of the actual problems of psychiatric care delivery and research work.
