Overview

The prevalence of delirium is approximately 23,000 per 100,000 hospitalized patients worldwide. Between May 2009 to August 2012, the incidence of delirium was estimated to be 8700 cases per 100,000 African-Americans in Indianapolis. Delirium is more commonly observed among elderly patients, especially age> 65 year-old. Male < 65 year-old are more commonly affected with delirium. Delirium is more commonly observed among Female≥ 85-year-old with medical comorbidities. There is no racial predilection for delirium. Young African-American patients are less likely to develop delirium compared with Caucasians of the same age.
