CONCLUSIONS: This study provides critical insights into delirium prevalence and profiles in Eastern Nepal. Identified risk factors underscore the importance of routine screenings and targeted interventions for at-risk populations. Study limitations, including sample size and single-centre focus, call for further research to validate findings and enhance our understanding of delirium's management across diverse healthcare settings. Overall, the study informs clinical practices and prompts broader exploration of delirium in healthcare contexts.PMID:38463110 | PMC:PMC10923295 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000001761
