In General: Delirium
• Delirium is a clinical syndrome of disordered attention, presenting as an inability to focus, shift or sustain attention
• It generally occurs acutely (over hours to days)
• Diagnosed if these are present
– acute onset and fluctuating course, and
– inattention, and
– either disorganized thinking or an altered level of consciousness.
![Page 20: Mini Mental State Examination - ARIMGSAS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012920/61c8c00e0423950543297c3f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Delirium symptoms
• Clouding of consciousness• Difficulty maintaining or shifting attention• Disorientation• Illusions• Hallucinations• Fluctuating levels of consciousness• Symptoms tend to fluctuate over the course of
the day, with some improvement in the daytime and maximum disturbance at night. Reversal of the sleep-wake cycle is common.
![Page 21: Mini Mental State Examination - ARIMGSAS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012920/61c8c00e0423950543297c3f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Delirium causes
• Infections (especially urosepsis, pneumonia)• Hypoxia • metabolic disturbance (eg hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia,
hyponatraemia)• drugs (including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, and
alcohol and illicit drugs) • organ failure (especially kidney failure, liver failure, and respiratory
failure with hypoxia/hypercapnia)• intracerebral events (eg subdural haematoma, haemorrhage,
stroke)• cardiac events (eg myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, congestive
heart failure)• withdrawal states (especially from alcohol and benzodiazepines )• pain and discomfort (eg urinary retention, constipation).
![Page 22: Mini Mental State Examination - ARIMGSAS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012920/61c8c00e0423950543297c3f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Investigations
• FBC– Helpful to diagnose infection
• Electrolytes – To diagnose low or high levels
• Oxygen saturation • Glucose
– To diagnose hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and hyperosmolar nonketotic states
• Urine analysis– Used to diagnose urinary tract infection
• Urine and blood drug screen – Used to diagnose toxicological causes
• Tests for bacteriological and viral etiologies - To diagnose infection
![Page 23: Mini Mental State Examination - ARIMGSAS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012920/61c8c00e0423950543297c3f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Treatment
• Non pharmacological– Admit and place in an area where they can be
observed at ALL TIMES– Monitor vitals, nutrition and hydration– A calm and quiet room– Presence of a familiar person in room always– Not too many shift changes for the patient – patient
should know his docs and nurses
• Pharmacological – only to control symptoms– Haloperidol / olanzapine single doses oral / IM– Avoid benzos

• Jane, based from the history and screening test, most probably the memory loss that you have is related to aging and most probably just a benign condition. However, this is a diagnosis of exclusion and several tests will be done to exclude the other differentials.
• These are Alzheimer’s Disease which is a condition of the brain that causes significant memory loss.
• Highly unlikely is Frontal lobe Dementia that causes also some behavioral changes.
• Next is Hypothyroidism where a gland in your neck is not functioning well causing some symptoms of memory problem.
• Stroke is highly unlikely and may presents also with body weakness and speech problems.
• If with history of trauma to the head, it can present as memory problem.
• Alcohol intake that can cause Wernicke Korsakoff syndrome that causes some memory impairment.
• But let me reassure you that this is most probably just a benign condition.

Task 1: Explain MMSE
• Mini mental state examination is the most commonly used instrument for bedside cognitive function screening.
• Its purpose is not to make a diagnosis, but to indicate the presence of cognitive impairment due to delirium, dementia or head injury.
• Used as a screening test for impairment in brain/cognitive functioning.
• It is brief, easily administered, has high reliability and may be used to monitor progress or fluctuations in these disorders.
• The thirty items in the MMSE measure orientation, attention, registration (immediate memory), recall (short-term memory), language and visuo-spatial function.
