Wearable sensors and blood markers may predict delirium in intensive care
NCT ID NCT07694206
First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study investigates whether digital biometrics and blood-based markers can help detect, predict, and track delirium in older adults admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Participants wear a digital device to collect data like activity and heart rate, and provide blood samples during their ICU stay. Researchers also assess delirium daily using a standard tool. The goal is to find new ways to identify delirium earlier and improve care for critically ill older patients.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to better ways to detect and predict delirium in ICU patients, potentially improving outcomes and reducing complications.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not identify reliable biomarkers, and findings may not apply to all ICU patients.
