Introduction: Delirium is the most common
NEUROPSYCHIATRIC syndrome seen in general medical hospitals. More than 7
million hospitalized Americans suffer from delirium each year.
Delirium
is present in 50% of OLDER HOSPITALIZED PTS and unfortunately is missed in
about 60% of cases. Estimated national health care costs attributed to Delirium
are now up to $164 billion dollars every year. Delirium can cause permanent
cognitive decline and can accelerate dementia.
