@emmavardy2 Hi @emmavardy2! The DeltaScan Monitor is designed to detect EEG delta waves associated with acute encephalopathy (acute brain failure, which encompasses delirium).
Today is #DWAD2024! An annual event to raise much-needed awareness about delirium and its impact. Bringing attention to the importance of early recognition and intervention for delirium and to raise awareness of the latest research, guidelines, and best practices in the field.
"There are questionnaires designed to track down #delirium, but they donβt work well in practice. While they perform reasonably well in a research setting, the challenge arises when many nurses need to administer them." Full story: https://t.co/YT6GN7riO9 #WDAD2024
Dr. Christiaan van Swol on St. Antonius Hospital search for another way to detect #delirium more quickly and to improve care for these often vulnerable older patients. Full quotes and their story: https://t.co/ejpZkYTus4

Receiving positive feedback from users is consistently gratifying, particularly when it originates from an experienced user like Professor Alexander Thomson: βDeltascan has been a great tool, giving me more confidence in clinical decision-making in #delirium".
@DavidKaplanMD Congrats! A great cause π! If you are ever interested in the learnings from the campaigns and programs we run together with some great hospitals, please feel free to reach out. ^Wout
