Delirium prevalence, diagnostic uncertainty and outcomes in ORCHARD-EPR: validation against prospective reference cohorts
Delirium diagnostic uncertainty was frequent particularly in the absence of key delirium risk factors and delirium prevalence, even combining both certain and uncertain cases, was lower than in the prospective cohorts. Nevertheless, co-occurrence with dementia and outcomes were similar indicating validity of screening and research potential of ORCHARD-EPR.
