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
- PiTStop, a complex intervention to prevent delirium.[4]
- Transcranial doppler to diagnose and monitor delirium.[5]
- MRI[6]
- EEG[7]
