ANNOTATION: Excited delirium or agitated delirium involves and individual acting in a particularly “violent, erratic, or bizarre manner”. Physical signs include: unfounded fear and panic; shouting and/ or nonsensical speech; hallucinations, paranoia, or other strange behavior; hyperactivity or throwing themselves about, especially following restraint; unexplained strength and/or endurance; shedding cloths or nudity often due to feeling hot; and huge amounts of sweating. This 18-minute training program is comprised of seven videos. And while it is written for EMS personnel, the post-test is still a very good tool to assess a person’s overall knowledge about excited delirium.
