Multicomponent nurse-led intervention (orientation, sensorial deficit, sleep, mobilization, hydration, nutrition, drugs, elimination, oxygenation, pain)

Delirium

Participants in the intervention group received the first intervention in the first 24 hours from admission, and thereafter daily until hospital discharge. The intervention was carried out exclusively by the "intervention nurses", and was composed of two main parts, being the first one a risk factor analysis, and the second one the intervention on the risk factors detected (orientation, sensorial deficit, sleep, mobilization, hydration, nutrition, drugs, elimination, oxygenation, pain). Furthermore, the intervention nurses identified the principal caregiver in the first 24 hours from admission, and provided an informative booklet about strategies and recommendations to prevent delirium incidence, including ambient strategies, orientation abilities, and identification of alert signs.
