2 AIMS Define delirium Identify: Different types of delirium Risk factors Preventable causes Screening tools Management
3 Can you define delirium?
4 How many types of delirium are there? Can you name them? Which of these do we see commonly in hospital?
5 Who is most at risk?
6 What is the prevalence of delirium? Medical patients? Surgical patients? Patients in long term care?
7 Can delirium be prevented? If so, can you think of any ways?
8 How do we screen for delirium? Can you think of any screening tools?
9 How does delirium affect patients and carers? Morbidity? Mortality? Complications?
10 NICE Guidelines Prevention Diagnosis and Management
11 Definition Acute confusional state common clinical syndrome Disturbance in consciousness, cognitive function and perception Acute onset Fluctuating course Preventable and treatable Assocc. with poor outcome
12 Prevalence On medical wards 20-30% Surgical patients 10-50% In long term care <20% Poor awareness and under reporting
13 Indicators Recent (hours/days) changes or fluctuation in behaviour Reported by patient, carer or relative If indicators present a competent HP should carry out a screening test
14 Indicators Cognitive function - reduced concentration, slow responses & confusion Perception - visual /auditory hallucinations Physical function - reduced mobility, slow movements, change in appetite, sleep disturbance, restlessness agitation Social behaviour - lack of cooperation, withdrawn, alteration in communication, mood and attitude
15 Types Hyperactive heightened arousal, restlessness, agitation and aggression Hypoactive withdrawn, quiet, drowsy Mixed combination of both Delirium in Dementia difficult to recognise
16 Risk Factors Older age > 65yrs Cognitive impairment Past or present Severe illness any condition at risk of deteriorating Hip fracture
17 Outcomes Longer hospital stay Increased risk of ICU admission Increased risk of hospital acquired complications falls and pressure sores i.e Increased need for long term care Increased risk of death
18 Diagnosis If indicators for delirium identified: Assess using Diagnositic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) criteria or short Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) In ICU or recovery room post-op CAM-ICU
19 Diagnosis If unclear whether delirium, dementia or delirium superimposed on dementia treat as delirium first Assessment to be carried out by trained competent HP Diagnosis of Delirium should be documented in both hospital and primary care health records.
20 Prevention For those at risk Provided by a team of HCP familiar with the patient Provide Multicomponent Intervention Package (MCIP) Assess patient within 24hrs of admission for clinical risk factors Tailor the MCIP to individual need
21 Prevention 1- Avoid room/ward changes unless absolutely necessary 2- Cognitive Impairment/disorientation- provide: Good lighting Clear Signage 24hr clock Calendar Re-orientation informing patient who they are, where they are and what you role is Facilitate visits from family and friends
22 Prevention 3- Dehydration prevent and treat, encourage oral intake and supplement with S/C and IV fluids 4- Constipation prevent and treat 5-Hypoxia assess and treat 6-Address infections investigate and treat avoid unnecessary catheterisation implement infection control procedure
23 Prevention 7- Immobility encourage to mobilise provide necessary aids early mobilisation post-op in bedbound pts encourage active range of motion exercises 8-Pain assess for non verbal signs in learning difficulties, dementia, ventilated and trachy. patients Medication review and analgesia 9-Nutrition assess status and check dentures
24 Prevention 10- Sensory impairment Resolving reversible causes ensuring visual and hearing aids available and in good working order 11- Good sleep pattern and hygiene avoid nursing/medical procedures during sleep hours schedule medication rounds to avoid sleep disturbance reduce noise
25 Treatment Identify and manage the underlying cause Effective communication, re-orientation and reassurance Involve family, friends and carers Provide a suitable environment
26 Treatment Distressed patients at risk to self and others verbal and non verbal de-escalation techniques short term use of anti-psychotics Haloperidol and Olanzepine at lowest doses titrate according to response ( less than 1 week) Anti-psychotics should be used with caution in patients with Parkinson Ds and Lewi-Body Dementia
27 Treatment If delirium does not resolve Re-evaluate the underlying cause(s) Follow up and assess for dementia
