Can a 4-Hour video course sharpen Nurses' ability to detect delirium in the ICU?

NCT ID NCT07759310

First seen Aug 12, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a short video-based training program, called the ICU Delirium Playbook, can improve how intensive care unit (ICU) nurses understand and recognize delirium—a sudden confusion that affects many critically ill patients. Nurses at one hospital will complete questionnaires before and after the training to see if their knowledge improves. The study also looks at whether the training changes how nurses care for patients and whether it helps identify delirium more often.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ICU Delirium Playbook educational program
What this could lead to
If effective, this training could become a standard tool to help ICU nurses better recognize and manage delirium, potentially improving patient outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study without a control group, so results may not apply broadly. It measures knowledge gains, not direct patient outcomes, and any benefits may not persist long-term.
