    AbstractThis paper reviews various types of assessment instruments for delirium, including nursing screening scales, symptom checklists, an analog scale, an interview schedule, and symptom rating scales. Their structures and applicability to the clinical and research assessment of delirium are described. Despite the seeming plethora of assessment methods, only a few are suitable for use by researchers.
