La persistencia de delirium a los 3 meses del egreso de los pacientes ancianos hospitalizados en una clínica universitaria

The study findings suggest a course of gradual improvement of delirium, with a persistence of symptoms over time in 40% of the patients, which would have implications for the clinical practice.
