Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with dementia develop behavioral problems over time. Among these, the investigators object screams or cries or disruptives vocalizations. Their cause is multifactorial and their management difficult in nursing homes. Often this patients are polymedicated, sedated or/and isolated.

Many scientific studies are interested in drug and non-drug treatments. In this study, the investigators are looking for a profile for disruptives vocalizations's patients. Thus, the investigators will study the global profile of demented patients residing in EHPAD to determine if there are any similarities between them.
