Its about <strong>act and consequence of shaking<\/strong> (to move something with <strong>violence<\/strong> and frequently, generate an alteration of the mood).<\/p>\n<p>For example: <em>\"By subjecting the liquid to agitation for several seconds, we will cause bubbles to form on its surface\"<\/em>, <em>\"The president's words caused a state of agitation in the crowd\"<\/em>, <em>\"The agitation of the sea is the product of the wind\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Agitation can occur in different settings.  To prepare a <strong>cocktail<\/strong>, it is common for the <strong>person<\/strong> Shake the contents of a container to mix the ingredients.  To prepare the martini, to name one possibility, you have to place gin and a splash of vermouth in a shaker.  After a short stir, the cocktail can be served.  The normal thing is that the glass is decorated with an olive.<\/p>\n<p>Certain musical instruments, such as <strong>maracas<\/strong> and the <strong>bells<\/strong>, require agitation to produce sound.  Whoever wishes to make these instruments sound should shake them with <strong>force<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For the <strong>psychology<\/strong>, agitation is a <strong>mood disturbance<\/strong> that causes hyperactivity of the body: <em>\"Prey to the agitation, the woman began to run and scream\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>From a point of view <strong>clinical<\/strong>, it is possible to define agitation as <em>a state of extreme excitement or excitement, which generates unpleasant sensations in the subject, such as irritability, confusion and tension<\/em>.  In this context, agitation can have various characteristics;  for example, sometimes it appears spontaneously, unrelated to any health disorder, while other times it may be an indication of a basic problem, and in these cases more symptoms are usually evident.<\/p>\n<p>A clear example of a picture in which agitation speaks of a more serious disorder is one in which it is combined with a <strong>altered consciousness<\/strong>, that is, when it is accompanied by a modification of the subject's mental clarity;  When this happens, we may be facing a case of <strong>delirium<\/strong>, a <strong>disorder<\/strong> confusion that must be properly diagnosed and treated by a doctor.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to delirium, agitation can also be found in the company of other diseases and problems in the brain, such as depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, Alzheimer's disease, and mania.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the <strong>Causes<\/strong> of agitation in humans, the possibilities are many, such as the following:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Agitacion.jpg\" alt=\"Agitation\" width=\"260\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-46311\"\/><strong>*<\/strong> in the case of alcohol or drug use (such as marijuana, cocaine, opiates, PCP or hallucinogens), withdrawal or intoxication;<br \/><strong>*<\/strong> various allergic reactions;<br \/><strong>*<\/strong> <strong>consumption<\/strong> excessive caffeine causing intoxication;<br \/><strong>*<\/strong> nephropathy, liver disease, lung disease or heart disease, in some of its forms;<br \/><strong>*<\/strong> admission to a hospital, especially in the elderly;<br \/><strong>*<\/strong> exposure to certain medications, including steroids, amphetamines, and theophylline.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing the causes of an agitation picture is very important, since <strong>often leads to serious forms of violence<\/strong>, both towards third parties and against the patient himself;  for example, it can increase the risk of suicide.  To reduce and control agitation, it is necessary for the subject to be in a <strong>environment<\/strong> calm, without annoying noises, with adequate lighting for their activities and that they sleep the number of hours recommended for their age and pace of life.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>social upheaval<\/strong>, on the other hand, refers to a commotion that is registered in the <strong>society<\/strong>.  Such agitation can be incited by certain groups to provoke a change of government. <strong>USA<\/strong>, within this framework, promoted social unrest in <strong>Cuba<\/strong> for many years with the intention of generating the fall of the communist regime, through the use of political propaganda, financing opposition groups, etc.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;4771&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;agitation&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Latin term agitated came to Castilian as agitation.
