AbstractUp to 92% of patients in ICU develop delirium, which may be missed without routinely monitoring. Delirium monitoring, though, is often deemed time consuming and dispensable, as mere clinical judgement is considered sufficient. This paper describes the general pitfalls during the introducing of a delirium screening tool and provides tips for daily delirium monitoring.Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart * New York.
