To compare the prevalence, characteristics, drug treatment for delirium, and outcomes of patients with Natural Language Processing (NLP) diagnosed behavioral disturbance (NLP-Dx-BD) vs Confusion Assessment Method for intensive care unit (CAM-ICU) positivity.
In three combined medical-surgical ICUs, we obtained data on demographics, treatment with antipsychotic medications, and outcomes. We applied NLP to caregiver progress notes to diagnose behavioral disturbance and analyzed simultaneous CAM-ICU.
We assessed 2313 patients with a median lowest Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of - 2 (- 4.0 to - 1.0) and median highest RASS score of 1 (0 to 1). Overall, 1246 (53.9%) patients were NLP-Dx-BD positive (NLP-Dx-BD) and 578 (25%) were CAM-ICU positive (CAM-ICU). Among NLP-Dx-BD patients, 539 (43.3%) were also CAM-ICU. In contrast, among CAM-ICU patients, 539 (93.3%) were also NLP-Dx-BD. The use of antipsychotic medications was highest in patients in the CAM-ICU and NLP-Dx-BD group (24.3%) followed by the CAM-ICU and NLP-Dx-BD group (10.5%). In NLP-Dx-BD patients, antipsychotic medication use was lower at 5.1% for CAM-ICU and NLP-Dx-BD patients and 2.3% for CAM-ICU and NLP-Dx-BD patients (overall P < 0.001). Regardless of CAM-ICU status, after adjustment and on time-dependent Cox modelling, NLP-Dx-BD was associated with greater antipsychotic medication use. Finally, regardless of CAM-ICU status, NLP-Dx-BD patients had longer duration of ICU and hospital stay and greater hospital mortality (all P < 0.001).
More patients were NLP-Dx-BD positive than CAM-ICU positive. NLP-Dx-BD and CAM-ICU assessment describe partly overlapping populations. However, NLP-Dx-BD identifies more patients likely to receive antipsychotic medications. In the absence of NLP-Dx-BD, treatment with antipsychotic medications is rare.
比较经自然语言处理(NLP)诊断为行为障碍(NLP-Dx-BD)与使用意识模糊评估法-重症监护病房(CAM-ICU)阳性的患者的发生率、特征、谵妄药物治疗和结局。
在三个综合外科重症监护病房中,我们获得了人口统计学数据、抗精神病药物治疗和结局的数据。我们将 NLP 应用于护理人员的进展记录以诊断行为障碍,并同时分析了 CAM-ICU。
我们评估了 2313 名患者,其最低 Richmond 意识激惹评分(RASS)中位数为-2(-4.0 至-1.0),最高 RASS 中位数为 1(0 至 1)。总体而言,1246 名(53.9%)患者 NLP-Dx-BD 阳性(NLP-Dx-BD),578 名(25%)CAM-ICU 阳性(CAM-ICU)。在 NLP-Dx-BD 患者中,539 名(43.3%)患者同时也是 CAM-ICU 阳性。相比之下,在 CAM-ICU 患者中,539 名(93.3%)患者同时也是 NLP-Dx-BD 阳性。CAM-ICU 和 NLP-Dx-BD 组的抗精神病药物使用率最高(24.3%),其次是 CAM-ICU 和 NLP-Dx-BD 组(10.5%)。在 NLP-Dx-BD 患者中,CAM-ICU 和 NLP-Dx-BD 患者的抗精神病药物使用率较低,为 5.1%,CAM-ICU 和 NLP-Dx-BD 患者的抗精神病药物使用率为 2.3%(总体 P < 0.001)。无论 CAM-ICU 状态如何,经调整和时间依赖性 Cox 模型分析,NLP-Dx-BD 与更高的抗精神病药物使用相关。最后,无论 CAM-ICU 状态如何,NLP-Dx-BD 患者的 ICU 和住院时间更长,住院死亡率更高(均 P < 0.001)。
NLP-Dx-BD 阳性患者多于 CAM-ICU 阳性患者。NLP-Dx-BD 和 CAM-ICU 评估描述了部分重叠的人群。然而,NLP-Dx-BD 可识别出更多可能接受抗精神病药物治疗的患者。在没有 NLP-Dx-BD 的情况下,抗精神病药物治疗很少见。
