Aim: To investigate how delirium occurring at distinct perioperative phases affects functional status at discharge in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. Findings: Nearly 30% of 1492 patients experienced delirium. Only persistent pre- and postoperative delirium (PRE-D + POD, 15.3%) was associated with a significantly higher risk of poor functional status at discharge. Message: Systematic assessment of delirium before and after surgery can help identify high-risk patients for poor functional outcomes.

Abstract
Aim: To investigate how delirium occurring at distinct perioperative phases affects functional status at discharge in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. Findings: Nearly 30% of 1492 patients experienced delirium. Only persistent pre- and postoperative delirium (PRE-D + POD, 15.3%) was associated with a significantly higher risk of poor functional status at discharge. Message: Systematic assessment of delirium before and after surgery can help identify high-risk patients for poor functional outcomes.File in questo prodotto:
