Abstract
Psychomotor agitation is characterized as a psychiatric emergency that requires immediate assistance. It is characterized by a significant increase in or inappropriateness of motor activity, from those of minimal concern through to uncoordinated movements with no specific purpose, accompanied by alterations in the emotional sphere. To date, rapid and in the same time non-invasive pharmacological treatment has been required to make it possible to control symptoms with reasonable safety and tolerability.
