27% of ICU survivors who had Delirium develop PTSD, increased cognitive impairment and mortality... patients with #delirium should not be described as ‘pleasantly confused’. Nothing pleasant about it. #icanpreventDelirium #ADS2018

Yes, definitely room for improvement, but motivation and "thinking delirium" goes a long way! https://t.co/rWMR4nQ7On

To assess for delirium you need a delirium literate picu 🤓#delirium #PedsICU

World Delirium Awareness Day is on 14 March 2018 :)

Can you help? Organise local teaching events, set up stalls, print posters and leaflets, etc. You can search #WDD2017 to see what people did this year.

Good point @delirious_dr! It's an important but somewhat neglected area. It will be interesting to see if our data shows if this persists past acute PICU survival - watch this space! https://t.co/1vof2f2nAJ

And it is incredibly humbling to be presenting along-side some of our delirium heroes! #edaOSLO2017 https://t.co/UXWervzctJ

[Meera agar @meera_agar]

So great to see PhD candidates and ECRs presenting at #edaOSLO2017

[Alasdair MacLullich @A_MacLullich]

With drug Rx of #delirium, Dr Neufeld reiterates the principle of #firstdonoharm. Drugs have a role but this role is limited. There is no drug Rx for delirium in general; rather sometimes for distressing symptoms of delirium if really necessary. #EDAOslo2017

@bec_paterson at @childhealthqld symposium: Parents of children in PICU report greater distress, IF their child had delirium.

@erinbrown12 on procedural pain: Start distraction early and encourage the child! Don't forget to encourage parents too! #ANZBA2017

So true! https://t.co/sboX7JLw9i
