Meta AnalysisDiagnostic test accuracy meta-analysis of PRE-DELIRIC (PREdiction of DELIRium in ICu patients): A delirium prediction model in intensive care practice.
To review and examine the evidence on diagnostic test accuracy of PRE-DELIRIC (PREdiction of DELIRium in ICu patients) for predicting delirium risk in critically ill patients. ⋯ We suggest that the PRE-DELIRIC model can be applied in the intensive care unit according to its good diagnostic test accuracy. However, this finding should be interpreted with caution due to the heterogeneity of this meta-analysis.
