abstract="Physicians from various medical specialties have the opportunity to encounter once in a while a dangerous psychiatric patient, an encounter which in many cases generates confusion and embarrassment. An attempt is made to identify the typical characteristics of such a patient and to give some practical guidance to the physician &quot;in the field'. A number of examples of the management of dangerous or even violent patients is presented. The objective of this contribution is to increase awareness of this issue, even among non-psychiatric medical personnel. Part I deals with epidemiology, etiology and prediction of dangerousness.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
