To evaluate the accuracy of the 3D-DST for delirium assessment in older adults by the nurse researcher.
The 3D-DST was administered by a trained nurse researcher to assess delirium among eligible older adults (aged ≥70 years). The criteria for identifying delirium was based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-V).
A total of 95 older adults were enrolled in the current study, and 23 patients were identified as positive for delirium by the psychiatrist. The sensitivity and specificity of the 3D-DST were 96% and 94%, respectively. High sensitivities of the 3D-DST were also observed among patients with hypoactive delirium (95%) and those with cognitive impairment (93%).
The 3D-DST was demonstrated as an appropriate instrument with highly acceptable sensitivities and specificities for delirium detection in hospitalized older patients.
评估护士研究员使用 3D-DST 对老年患者谵妄评估的准确性。
由经过培训的护士研究员使用 3D-DST 对符合条件的老年患者(年龄≥70 岁)进行谵妄评估。根据《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》第 5 版(DSM-V)来确定谵妄的标准。
共有 95 名老年人参与了本研究,其中 23 名患者被精神科医生诊断为患有谵妄。3D-DST 的灵敏度和特异性分别为 96%和 94%。在患有低活动型谵妄(95%)和认知障碍(93%)的患者中,3D-DST 的灵敏度也较高。
3D-DST 是一种合适的工具,用于检测住院老年患者的谵妄,具有高度可接受的灵敏度和特异性。
