🧠 D E L I R I U M ! 🧠 Huge association between delirium & risk of future dementia. But not usually listed as a risk factor - the dementia scientific community needs to catch up. inews.co.uk/news/health/over…

💡 #Delirium isn’t “just confusion” - it TRIPLES mortality at 30 days. Would you ignore a heart attack? Stop normalizing brain failure. #WDAD2025

Delrium is more than just confusion. It's a serious medical condition that can affect thinking, attention, and awareness, especially in hospitalized patients. As we approach World Delirium Awareness Day on March 12, let's raise awareness and improve care! #WDAD2025 #Delirium @WesElyMD @DrJimJackson @iDelirium_Aware @pratikpande15 @Walk4Pics
