1) Children with delirium had higher inflammatory markers (e.g. C-reactive protein, ferritin, D-dimer, procalcitonin) & more frequently p/w severe neuro manifestations (all p < 0.001).
2) Pts w/ delirium underwent more testing (p < 0.001). Among children w/ delirium who received EEG, abnormalities were universal (n=23).
Neurocritical Care - The aims of this study were to describe pediatric delirium and its association with inflammatory, neurodiagnostic, and clinical severity profiles in children hospitalized with...
