The course of delirium in acute stroke
Age and Aging, 04/22/09
Mc Manus J et al. - Delirium is common post-stroke. Most cases develop at stroke onset and remain delirious for an appreciable period. Delirium onset is associated with stroke severity (low admission Barthel), unsafe swallow on admission, poor vision pre-stroke and a raised admission CRP. Delirium is a marker of poor prognosis.
