First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a training program for emergency department staff to better detect delirium—a sudden confusion—in older adults. Researchers trained nurses and doctors at three hospitals and checked if detection improved. About 3,000 patients were involved. The goal was to see if the program helps identify more cases so patients can get the right care sooner.
