Delirium is the most common neuropsychiatric complication of hospitalized AIDS patients. Typically, delirium is multifactorial in etiology and a complete evaluation to rule out all treatable, contributable medical conditions should be the first stage in the approach to a delirious AIDS patient. While a search for probable cause is underway, the next goal of treatment should be sedation. To help clinicians recognize and manage delirium in advanced HIV disease, we describe our experience with 206 AIDS patients.
谵妄是住院艾滋病患者最常见的神经精神并发症。通常,谵妄的病因是多因素的,对谵妄的艾滋病患者进行诊治时,首要步骤应是进行全面评估以排除所有可治疗的、有促成作用的医学状况。在寻找可能病因的同时,治疗的下一个目标应该是镇静。为帮助临床医生识别和处理晚期HIV疾病中的谵妄,我们描述了我们对206例艾滋病患者的治疗经验。
