Risk Assessment for Postoperative Delirium: Derivation of a Self-Administered Tablet Computer-based Clinical Screening Tool
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Tablet computer application for Postoperative Delirium. Completed, enrolled 54 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Postoperative delirium (POD) - a temporary state of confusion - is a frequent complication of surgery, which most commonly occurs in elderly patients. A tablet computer application that may assist preoperative risk screening for POD was developed at the University Hospital Basel in 2014. This study aims to investigate whether the computer program may assess the risk of a patient to develop POD.
