Overview

There are many still unknown about delirium. Studies are being conducted to understand pathophysiology, more effective ways of prevention, utilization of EEG and CT/MRI scan etc.

Future or Investigational Therapies

Currently many studies are being conducted such as;

Prevention of Delirium

Studies to Improve Diagnosis and Prevention of Delirium

Transcranial doppler to diagnose and monitor delirium
MRI
EEG

Studies to Understand Pathophysiology of Delirium

Role of the immune system
Peri-operative delirium
