Delirium Best Practice Updates for Hospitalists
When delirium erupts on the ward, clarity must come fast. In this update for hospitalists, you’ll identify delirium subtypes and bedside screening tools, describe high-impact nonpharmacologic strategies, and choose when off‑label antipsychotics are appropriate for dangerous agitation. We emphasize practical cases and outline a scalable inpatient framework that improves safety, communication, and patient recovery.
