Dementia Clinical Trial
— DELIRIUMOfficial title:
Delirium Identification in Older Patients With Alzheimer's and Other Related Dementias In the Emergency Department Using Wrist Accelerometer Biosensors and Machine Learning
Delirium is highly prevalent and very bad for patients with dementia. Delirium is a dangerous medical condition that occurs in 6-38% of older Emergency Department patients and 70% of ICU patients. A person who develops delirium in the ED or hospital has a 12 times higher odds of being newly diagnosed with dementia in the next year compared to a similar patient who does not become delirious. Delirium is especially dangerous for persons living with Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). Persons living with ADRD have an almost 50% chance of developing delirium in the hospital. Clinicians are bad at recognizing delirium. A recent systematic review led by the Geriatric Emergency Care Applied Research network (NIH funded) found that current delirium screening tools are at most 64% sensitive, meaning that physicians can identify some phenotypes of delirium well, but cannot easily rule out delirium in acutely ill older patients. The investigators propose integrating wrist biosensors into the emergency management of older adults with dementia. The investigators will monitor heart rate variability, movement, and electrodermal activity (electrical activity of at the level of the skin) to determine if an array of biosensors more sensitive to delirium than current verbal screening tools.

Primary | Proportion of participants who develop delirium | The proportion of participants who develop delirium will be determined by one or more positive CAM-ICU 7 (Confusion Assessment Method- Intensive Care Unit 7) assessments during the study participation timeframe. The CAM-ICU 7 is a categorical test with 0 being no delirium and higher numbers signifying different levels of delirium. | over the 48 hours of study participation | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability | Patient and caregiver acceptability of wearing the biosensor in the hospital will be assessed with a quick 6 question survey based off the Theoretical Framework of Acceptability. Survey questions use likert scales. For example, a score of 1 corresponds to being completely unacceptable and 5 corresponds to being completely acceptable. | Assessment completed at 48 hours or earlier if discharged prior to 48 hours | |
Secondary | Biosensor data usability | Sometimes wrist biosensors are not able to detect signal well or can be dislodged or removed, which leads to periods of time without usable data. The biosensor data collected from each participant will be assessed for data quality and usability by the statistical analysis team. | 48 hours | |
Secondary | Correlation of biosensor array data with clinical delirium | We will investigate the correlation of the biosensor array data (e.g., heart rate variability, electrodermal activity, and accelerometry) with the development of clinical delirium in the participants. This statistical analysis will be completed asynchronously after all the participants have finished all data collection for the study. | up to 48 hours of biosensor and clinical data per participant |
