The evaluation of frequency and predictors of delirium and its short-term and long-term outcomes in hospitalized older adults'
CONCLUSION: Delirium is quite frequent in geriatric inpatients and is associated with high in-hospital and post-discharge mortality risk and long-term functional dependency.
