Violent behavior secondary to "dementia" it the only "specific" reason we are tracking violent behavior.  We will not change this until we go to ICU10. As discussed with Dr. Allan Garland. [[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 12:13, 2012 July 16 (CDT)

*the above name shortening is not good, creates confusion and folks are using this code for other reason for violent behaviour. This is not what we want.  Please fix wording in ccmdb.[[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 12:13, 2012 July 16 (CDT)

** Trish, I can make it longer in the CCMDB.mdb, but it won't be visible because the field is too short. Have a look in your version of the program to see what I mean. If you give me a wording that will fit the field I can update. Maybe "Violence" rather than Violent Behaviour... something like that. Even partial words or abbreviations would be OK as long as they cause looking up rather than assuming. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 10:32, 2012 July 17 (CDT)
