Collaborative Networks to Advance Delirium Research (R24): Delirium, defined as an acute impairment of cognition and attention, is a common complication of severe illness and surgery in older adults. It is associated with multiple adverse outcomes including increased morbidity, mortality, functional and cognitive decline, and institutionalization. Delirium remains markedly underdiagnosed.Moreover, the underlying mechanisms, and thereby potential treatment or prevention targets, are inadequately understood, as is prognosis. Addressing important research gaps may improve approaches for appropriate prevention and management, especially as studies of multicomponent interventions suggest that delirium may be at least 30-40% preventable.This FOA is intended to support a collaborative network to advance scientific research on the causes, mechanisms, outcomes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of delirium in older adults.
