No intervention or group of interventions reliably prevents delirium; however, multicomponent, nonpharmacologic interventions that manage many of the modifiable risk factors appear to reduce the incidence of delirium.
A number of factors have been identified as causing or contributing to delirium in at-risk patients. Examples of interventions designed to mitigate risk factors for delirium include Orientation protocols, cognitive stimulation, facilitation of physiologic sleep, early mobilization, visual and hearing aids, selecting appropriate medication choice, pain management, and avoiding and treating medical complications.
