Definitions
Delirium is well defined and is described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fourth edition (DSSM IV TR). The key characteristics are a change in mental status characterized by a reduced awareness of the environment and a disturbance in attention. This may be accompanied by other, more florid, perceptual symptoms (hallucinations) or cognitive symptoms including disorientation or temporary memory dysfunction. The patient may express hypoactive, hyperactive or mixed psychomotor behaviors. Several tests have been developed and validated for use in diagnosis and grading of delirium.
