Overview

There are many still unknown about delirium. Studies are being conducted to understand pathophysiology, more effective ways of prevention, utilization of EEG and CT/MRI scan etc.

Future or Investigational Therapies

Currently many studies are being conducted such as;

Prevention of Delirium

Studies to Improve Diagnosis and Prevention of Delirium

  • PiTStop, a complex intervention to prevent delirium.[4]
  • Transcranial doppler to diagnose and monitor delirium.[5]
  • MRI[6]
  • EEG[7]

Studies to Understand Pathophysiology of Delirium

  • Role of immune system[8]
  • Peri-operative delirium[9]
