Filter by:Inpatient delirium incidence is widely documented in international and local studies, however, there is no viable and labour-free delirium detection and management tool. CURATE.DTx is our tablet ready, multi-tasking serious game, that leverage a small data artificial intelligence-derived platform that can dynamically personalise cognitive training by modifying the game intensity. The main aims of this study are to explore the feasibility and usability of this new digital tool to aid in the delirium screening and management of at-risk delirium hospitalized patients.
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common and severe complication in patients undergoing major surgery, especially in the elderly. POD has been proven to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality, institutionalization, and high healthcare costs. This retrospective cohort study aimed to use machine learning methods to develop clinically meaningful models to support clinical decision making.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the most appropriate anticoagulation monitoring tool for unfractionated heparin (UFH), by comparison of different monitoring modalities in relation to adverse events occurrence (thrombosis/bleeding). The main study questions are: - What is the most appropriate anticoagulation monitoring tool (ACT, aPTT, viscoelastic tests (ROTEM), and anti-Xa) for UFH - What is the incidence of adverse events associated with anticoagulation and inflammation after heart and vascular interventions - Is there an association of available anticoagulation thresholds and monitoring tests with bleeding and/or thrombosis occurrence - Is there an association of inflammation with delirium Secondary study objectives include: - Association of anticoagulation levels as measured by ACT, aPTT, viscoelastic tests (ROTEM), and anti-factor-Xa with adverse events - Correlation of each anticoagulation monitoring test with the UFH anti-Xa measurement - Correlation of each anticoagulation monitoring test with another (ACT, aPTT, ROTEM, anti-F-Xa) and the amount of blood loss post surgery - The incidence of UFH-rebound effect and the need for protamine application - Association of inflammation and increased / reduced need for anticoagulation titration - Correlation of anticoagulation dosing with anticoagulation monitoring tests and adverse events - The association of inflammation with adverse events - The association and impact of inflammation on measured levels of anticoagulation with available tests - Influence of anticoagulation on mortality - Incidence of ECMO support - Incidence of delirium (hypoactive and hyperactive) and correlation with vital (newly onset postoperative atrial fibrillation amongst others) and laboratory parameters, including, and pre-existing neurological disorders
This study will be a pilot randomized controlled trial that will determine the effect of an indicator of delirium risk, which will be delivered either via a paper form or via the electronic medical record, on (1)postoperative delirium incidence; and (2)the development of long term cognitive decline and dementia.

Emergence delirium can lead to a range of clinical problems and is even associated with short-term behavioral changes in children. Pediatric ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery is one of the most common surgical types for postoperative delirium in children. Sevoflurane anesthesia is also a known cause of postoperative delirium. Therefore, this study aims to explore whether there is a difference in the incidence of postoperative delirium in children under remimazolam general anesthesia and sevoflurane anesthesia.
The aim of this trial is to explore the efficacy of music in preventing delirium in elderly patients with hip fracture. The main aims of this research are: 1. To compare the effectiveness of music intervention in preventing delirium in patients with hip fractures through a randomized controlled trial. The comparisons include respiratory rate, pulse rate, blood pressure, and pain score, as well as the incidence and severity of delirium, opioid analgesic usage, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and rates of readmission within 14 days and 30-day mortality. 2. Introduce the evidence-based ''listening music protocol'' in the care of hip fracture patients to prevent delirium, and test the effects through a randomized controlled trial.
Early cognitive assessment of critically-ill acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients with delirium using a multidimensional electrophysiological evaluation battery (mEEG) to identify and characterize the neural correlates of cognitive dysfunctions associated with delirium (vigilance, attention, semantic and lexical processing, self-processing), and to develop a prognostic evaluation of neurocognitive and psychological disorders using an innovative non-behavioral approach.
This is a pragmatic phase III, randomized, blinded, double placebo-controlled, three-arm trial of elderly patients following cardiac surgery to assess the relationship between nighttime intravenous (IV) and sublingual dexmedetomidine on postoperative delirium and functional outcomes after surgery.
The overarching goal of this study is to support the "real world" assessment of strategies used to foster adoption of several highly efficacious evidence-based practices in healthcare systems that provide care to critically ill adults with known health disparities. Investigators will specifically evaluate two discrete strategies grounded in behavioral economic and implementation science theory (i.e., real-time audit and feedback and registered nurse implementation facilitation) to increase adoption of the ABCDEF bundle in critically ill adults.
