Hospital Course
Mental Status quickly deterioratedHallucinationsFluctuating mental status
Alert but not oriented at timesUnable to concentrateTangential thought
“sundowning” Patient placed in restraints

Delirium
![Page 12: Morning Report Steve Hart 4/19/2006. Case Presentation 77 y/o AAF with ESRD presents to ED with lower extremity weakness x 1-2 days and elevated blood.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649d495503460f94a24f09/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Delirium
Definitionreduced ability to focus, sustain, or shift attention change in cognition or the development of a perceptual disturbance Acute onset (hours to days)Identifiable cause
![Page 13: Morning Report Steve Hart 4/19/2006. Case Presentation 77 y/o AAF with ESRD presents to ED with lower extremity weakness x 1-2 days and elevated blood.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649d495503460f94a24f09/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Epidemiology
At admission prevalence 14-24% Hospitalization incidence 6 to 56%15-53% geriatric patients post-op70-80% older patients in ICU60% nursing home will have at some time83% of geriatric patients prior to death
![Page 14: Morning Report Steve Hart 4/19/2006. Case Presentation 77 y/o AAF with ESRD presents to ED with lower extremity weakness x 1-2 days and elevated blood.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649d495503460f94a24f09/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Delirium….Why should I care?
Mortality rate in hospitalized patients 22-76% One year mortality rate is 35-40%Prolongs hospital courseIncreased cost of care in hospitalIncreases likelihood of disposition to nursing home, functional decline and loss of independence
![Page 15: Morning Report Steve Hart 4/19/2006. Case Presentation 77 y/o AAF with ESRD presents to ED with lower extremity weakness x 1-2 days and elevated blood.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649d495503460f94a24f09/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
More reasons to care
Strong association with underlying dementiaFrequently, patient may never return to baseline or take months to over a year to do soDelirium is often the sole manifestation of serious underlying disease

NeurotransmissionCholinergic deficiency
Anticholinergics can precipitate deliriumSerum anticholinergic activity increased in those with deliriumCholinesterase inhibitors can reverse this effect
Dopaminergic excessNeuropeptides, endorphins, serotonin, NE, GABA may play a role.

Diagnosis
Clinical
Step #1 – Recongnize the disorder
Step #2 - Uncover underlying medical illness
![Page 24: Morning Report Steve Hart 4/19/2006. Case Presentation 77 y/o AAF with ESRD presents to ED with lower extremity weakness x 1-2 days and elevated blood.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56649d495503460f94a24f09/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Recognize
Often unrecongnized, >70% of cases
Behavioral or cognitive issues often wrongly attributed to age, dementia or other mental disorders
determine acuity of change in mental status.if no historian available, one should assume acute and delirious until proven otherwise

Disturbance in consciousness and alterned congnitionConsciousness
Attention – poorSubtle loss of mental clarity initially
Patient “isn’t acting right”
DistractabilityTangential or disorganized thought
Acute/subacute onsetFluctuating course throughout a day

Assessment
Formal mental status evaluation in all geriatric patients (ie. MMSE or CAM)
Arouse all older patients daily to evaluate hypoactive form of delirium
Search for causes of delirium
