Delirium is a common and often under-recognised neuropsychiatric disorder in paediatric critical care, secondary to a general medical condition. Paediatric delirium (PD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality and prolonged stay at the intensive care unit. This review introduces the reader to PD and focuses on diagnostic tools, prognosis and treatment. The literature about PD is sparse. In order to make recommendations about PD based on evidence more clinical studies are urgently needed.
谵妄是儿科重症监护中常见且常未被识别的神经精神障碍，继发于一般躯体疾病。小儿谵妄（PD）与高发病率、高死亡率以及在重症监护病房的长时间住院有关。本综述向读者介绍小儿谵妄，并重点关注诊断工具、预后和治疗。关于小儿谵妄的文献较少。为了基于证据对小儿谵妄提出建议，迫切需要更多的临床研究。
