Delirium is an acute disturbance in cognition and attention that may signify a serious medical, life-threatening condition and may mimic psychiatric-mental health issues. Although its prevalence rate is lower in the community, delirium affects up to 87% of hospitalized older adults and can cost up to $152 billion each year. Despite its common occurrence, delirium is often undetected in 50% to 60% across all care settings, delaying treatment and resulting in poor patient outcomes, such as increased mortality, prolonged hospital stays, cognitive and functional impairment, decreased quality of life, and institutionalization.
