Abstract

Delirium is a common and serious postoperative complication. Subanaesthetic ketamine is often administered intraoperatively for postoperative analgesia, and some evidence suggests that ketamine prevents delirium. The primary purpose of this trial was to assess the effectiveness of ketamine for prevention of postoperative delirium in older adults.

15. Confusion Assessment MethodNurses’ Evaluation of theConfusion Assessment Method

Author

Waszynski, Christine M. and Petrovic, Kimberly

Abstract

Delirium is frequently overlooked in hospitalized adult patients of all ages. Because nurses spend significant amounts of time with patients, the nursing assessment is vital to the identification of delirium. This pilot study investigated nurses’ evaluation of the Confusion Assessment Method related to ease of use and helpfulness in identifying delirium in adult patients on two hospital units. Delirium rates are reported for patients across all shifts for 1 month. The majority of nurses found the Confusion Assessment Method to be an effective, user-friendly instrument for the assessment of patients’ cognitive status over time.

Subjects
*DELIRIUM, *ELDER care, *COGNITION disorders, *HOSPITAL care, *DIAGNOSIS, *SYMPTOMS, *NURSING
Abstract

With approximately 15 to 60 % of elderly patients experience a delirium prior to or during a hospitalization but the diagnosis is missed in up to 70% of cases. Delirium is associated with poor outcomes such as prolonged hospitalization, functional decline, and increased use of chemical and physical restraints. The best solution to this problem is the Confusion Assessment Method, which includes two parts. Part one is an assessment instrument that screens for overall cognitive impairment. Part two includes only those four features that were found to have the greatest ability to distinguish delirium or reversible confusion from other types of cognitive impairment.
