AB Pediatric  mental  health  emergencies  encompass  a  range  of  conditions,  including  psychiatric  conditions  such  as  mood  and  anxiety  disorders  (depression,  bipolar  disorder,  suicidal  ideation,  obsessive  compulsive  disorders,  posttraumatic  stress  syndrome),  exacerbations  of  behavioral  disorders  (attention-deficit/hyperactivity  disorder,  aggressive  outbursts,  conduct  disorders),  deteriorating  neurodevelopmental  disorders  (autistic  spectrum  disorders,  tic  disorders,  intellectual  disabilities),  addictive  disorders,  and  eating  disorders.  The  psychological  and  sometimes  physical  aftermath  of  child  maltreatment,  mass  casualty  incidents  and  disasters,  and  exposure  to  violence  and  unexpected  deaths  are  also  likely  causes  of  mental  health  emergencies.1-4
