• Delirium as a predictor of mortality in mechanically ventilated patients in the intensive care unit. (2004, background): “In non-ICU hospital settings, delirium has been associated with prolonged stay, greater dependency, subsequent institutionalization, and increasedmortality.(17,27-34) However,only recently have valid and reliable instruments to measure both level of arousal(35-37) and delirium(38-40) in ICU patients”
• The impact of delirium in the intensive care unit on hospital length of stay (2001, background): “In the ICU setting, as in terminal cancer patients [40] , it will be important to determine if delirium is merely a marker of illness and physical frailty, an avoidable iatrogenic complication, or an independent contributor to poor neurological outcomes and survival.”
