Observational Study
Cerebral perfusion alterations and cognitive decline in critically ill sepsis survivors.
We investigated the association between cerebral perfusion perturbations in sepsis with possible cognitive decline (CD) after patients' discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU). ⋯ Delirium, but not cerebral perfusion alterations, is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in septic patients who were discharged from the ICU.
