Cost-Effectiveness of Therapy
In the USA, the cost of a patient admission with delirium is estimated at between $16k and $64k, suggesting the national burden of delirium may range from $38 bn to $150 bn per year (2008 estimate).[1] In the UK, the cost is estimated as £13k per admission.[2] Delirium results in,
Increased health care costs Higher incidence of death.[3] Rise in duration of the hospital stay by an avarage of eight days worse physical and cognitive recovery at 6 - 12 months with increased time in institutional care. One third patiens do not acheive complete recovery from delirium, andtend to have worse prognosis. patients may have recollections of the event that they find unpleasant and disturbing.[4]
