Abstract

Panic disorder is characterized by the spontaneous and unexpected occurrence of panic attacks. During panic attacks, patients (pts) refer to the Emergency Department (ED). The diagnostic work-up for any panic attack is expensive since symptoms at presentation mimic other diseases such acute coronary syndrome or neurological emergencies. The aim of the present study was to describe a 10 years cohort of pts diagnosed with panic disorder in the ED in terms of ED visit recurrence.
