The pathogenesis of delirium in acute stroke is incompletely understood. The use of medications with anticholinergic (ACH) activity is associated with an increased frequency of delirium. We hypothesized that the intake of medications with ACH activity is associated with delirium in acute stroke
BACKGROUND
Delirium is characterized by disturbances of attention and cognition that cause functional decline and complications. The predisposing factors of delirium are age, male gender, systemic or metabolic disorders, dementia, and stroke. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of delirium
BACKGROUND
Delirium is considered to worsen life prognosis in elderly patients with stroke. We examined the effects of the melatonin receptor agonist ramelteon for treating delirium in elderly stroke patients with insomnia in comparison to the other drugs.
METHODS
Elderly patients with delirium and
Delirium is a common complication of stroke worsening its prognosis. In this work we have analyzed the frequency of delirium and factors, predisposing to its development in the population of Russian patients in hyperacute phase of stroke. Twenty two of 96 (around 23%) recruited patients revealed
This study evaluated the outcomes of ischemic stroke patients according to delirium motor subtype.This study included patients who were admitted to the stroke unit between August 2017 and March 2019 and met the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for delirium. Background: Previous research confirmed association between delirium and subsequent dementia in different clinical settings, but the impact of post-stroke delirium on cognitive functioning is still under-investigated. Therefore, we aimed
Delirium is a common complication of stroke worsening its prognosis. The aim of the work is to identify the group of risk for the development of delirium among elderly patients with acute stroke and assessment of diagnostic value of 4-A test in identifying delirium in this category of patients. We
Neuropsychiatric symptoms can be interrelated to delirium. We aimed to investigate an association between pre-stroke neuropsychiatric symptoms and the risk of delirium in stroke patients. We included 606 patients (median age: 73, 53% female) with stroke or transient ischemic attack admitted within
BACKGROUND
There have been only a small number of studies that have evaluated the outcome of post-stroke delirium.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of gender, age, stroke localization, delirium severity, previous illnesses, associated medical complications on delirium outcome as well as, to
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess and compare the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) and the Delirium Rating Scale (DRS) in the detection of delirium in the acute stroke setting, when used by a non-psychiatrist doctor.
METHODS
Consecutive participants within 4 days of an acute stroke were
OBJECTIVE
Delirium is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment and development of dementia in medical patients. It has never been thoroughly studied whether this association is also present in the stroke population. Our aim was to evaluate the effects of delirium in the acute phase after
The idea that delirium is a risk factor for dementia, broadly defined, is derived from heterogeneous patient samples. We reviewed available evidence as to whether stroke survivors who developed delirium during the acute phase of treatment are at a higher prospective risk of incident post-stroke
The aim of our retrospective study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Yokukansan(TJ-54)in treating delirium during hospitalization following acute stroke. We retrospectively analyzed the patients 1)who were admitted to our single stroke center from January 2010 to December 2011 due to
The purpose of this systematic literature review was to examine whether different assessment methods contribute to the variance in delirium incidence detected in populations of patients with acute stroke. Specifically, the aim was to address the influence of (1) choice of assessment BACKGROUND
Post-stroke delirium is not uncommon, and is associated with poorer outcome, higher mortality, longer hospital stay and greater risk of post-stroke dementia. We aim to identify the incidence of post-stroke delirium, risk factors for its development and 1-year outcome.
METHODS
Consecutive
