Definition of DeliriumDefinition of Delirium

• derived from Latin:derived from Latin:– de “away from”– lira “ furrow in field” – ium (Latin for singular)ium (Latin for singular)

Delirium – a brain organ dysfunction

Morandi et al ICM 2008;34:1907‐1915

Page 6: Delirium in ICU Characteristic, Diagnosis and Prevention

Delirium Subtypesyp• Hyperactive delirium ‐agitation restlessness pulling catheters or tubesagitation, restlessness, pulling catheters or tubes, hitting, biting, and emotional lability. (At risk for self‐extubation and subsequent reintubation)q )

• Hypoactive delirium –ypwithdrawal, flat affect, apathy, lethargy and perhaps even unresponsiveness; often unrecognized due to h “ i ” ( i k f i ithese “quiet” symptoms; (At risk for aspiration, pulmonary embolism, decubitus ulcers, and other complications related to immobility)complications related to immobility)

• Mixed ‐ combinationMixed  combination

D li i C iti I i tDelirium versus Cognitive Impairment

• Delirium • Cognitive impairment– rapid onsetfluctuation

– variable to insidious onset– not fluctuating– fluctuation

– clouded consciousness

not fluctuating– no clouding of consciousness– Inattention, disorganized 

thought

consciousness– many domains impaired

– not chronic – persistent/chronic (?)
