Abstract

The article investigates the impact of delirium on the relationship between a history of falls and short-term mortality risk in critically ill ischemic stroke patients. It finds that delirium significantly mediates the association between recent falls and increased mortality within 28 days. Topics include the increased mortality risk associated with recent falls, the role of delirium in this relationship, and implications for preventing delirium to improve patient outcomes.
