Developing and implementing an integrated delirium prevention system of care

Developing and implementing an integrated delirium prevention system of care: a theory driven, participatory research study. BMC Health services Research 13, 341. In this article published at the BMC Health Services Research, Godfrey et al (2013) talks on how clinicians can develop a prevention system of care to detect and prevent delirium in the ICU. The article discusses an assessment tool called the Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) to detect and prevent delirium. The tool uses an experienced interdisciplinary team aided by trained volunteers and a team of proactive geriatric consultation with targeted recommendations founded on a structured protocol. This article has been expertly written and gives a step by step analysis on how this tool can be used to prevent delirium in elderly patients thus giving the article the moral authority to discuss the research topic.
