Abstract Background the aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of emergency department (ED) stay-associated delirium on older patient’s functional and cognitive status at 60 days post ED visit. Methods this study was part of the multi-centre prospective cohort INDEED study. This project took place between March 2015 and July 2016 in five participating EDs across the province of Quebec. Independent non-delirious patients aged ≥65, with an ED stay ≥8 hours, were monitored for delirium until 24 hours post ward admission. A 60-day follow-up phone assessment was conducted. Participants were screened for delirium using the Confusion Assessment Method. Functional and cognitive statuses were assessed at baseline and at the 60-day follow-up using OARS and TICS-m. Results a total of 608 patients were recruited, 393 of which completed the 60-day follow-up. The Confusion Assessment Method was positive in 69 patients (11.8%) during ED stay or within the first 24 hours following ward admission. At 60 days, delirium patients experienced an adjusted loss of −2.9/28 [95%CI: −3.9, −2.0] points on the OARS scale compared to non-delirious patients who lost −1.6 [95%CI: −1.9, −1.3] (P = 0.006). A significant adjusted difference in cognitive function was also noted at 60 days, as TICS-m scores in delirious patients decreased by −1.6 [95%CI: −3.5, 0.2] compared to non-delirious patients, who showed a minor improvement of 0.5 [95%CI: −0.1, 1.1] (P = 0.03). Conclusion seniors who developed ED stay-associated delirium have lower baseline functional and cognitive status than non-delirious patients, and they will experience a more significant decline at 60 days post ED visit.

Zusammenfassung: Das Delir (“akuter Verwirrtheitszustand”) bezeichnet eine psychische Störung, die plötzlich auftritt, durch eine rasche Fluktuation von Bewusstseinslage und Aufmerksamkeitsleistung gekennzeichnet ist und eine organische Ursache hat. Dieses Störungsbild nimmt bei Patienten im höheren Lebensalter deutlich an Häufigkeit zu und verursacht durch verlängerte Krankenhausaufenthalte und ungünstige Krankheitsverläufe erhebliche Kosten im Gesundheitssystem. Daher erscheint eine möglichst frühe Erkennung deliranter Zustandsbilder gerade im Rahmen der Geriatrie von großer Bedeutung. Zu diesem Zweck wurde eine deutsche Version der international weit verbreiteten Confusion Assessment Method entwickelt, die für die Bedürfnisse einer Abteilung für Akutgeriatrie modifiziert wurde. Dargestellt werden die Entwicklung und erste Erfahrungen mit diesem Instrument.
