Violence et urgence

We study the process of acting through the analysis of violence being only from the fact of emergency. Medical technicality and effectiveness are paradoxically binded to confusion and communication problems in emergency rooms. This place becomes thus favourable with an acting out in the reality, of phantasms, family scenes, dramas whose acts unfolding the knowledge of the patients, their family and the practitioners. The scene of emergency should not be that of a wild psychodrama. The urgentist must hold account of the opacity of the psychic fact to try to prevent violent acts, which not always emanate from its patients.
