Clinical updates: delirium.
Delirium is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized adults. Because delirium can significantly influence a patient's overall prognosis, identification of risk factors, early detection, and prompt, aggressive management of both delirium and its underlying cause are essential for positive outcomes. Education of practitioners and the use of standardized assessment tools can increase the recognition of the syndrome.
