Dr. Mark Oldham, Associate Professor of Psychiatry at University of Rochester Medical Center, President-Elect of the American Delirium Society, and Deputy Editor of the Journal of the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, further explores delirium. This episode covers the pathophysiology of delirium including predisposing and precipitating factors, neurocircuitry, and neurotransmitters. We then discuss conceptual frameworks for management of delirium, the importance of identifying and addressing the underlying cause, and strategies for managing specific neuropsychiatric disturbances in delirium.
