Delirium in patients admitted to a step-down unit: Analysis of incidence and risk factors
Journal of Critical Care, 10/01/09
Ceriana P et al. – Delirium may still occur after discharge from an ICU in patients who are transferred to an SDU. The strategy of care adopted in the SDU seems to positively affect the recovery from a delirious state. Patients with subsyndromal forms should be promptly recognized and treated because of the risk of developing delirium. Weaning from MV is not hindered by delirium.
