What we do, What You can Do

Delirium is a common and potentially serious medical condition that can affect the elderly, the frail, the sick, the cognitively impaired - but more generally: everyone - given "stressing" events.

These may include - among others - infections, operations, change in or withdrawal from medication, sensory deprivation or even simply removal from one's familiar environment such as hospitalization.

Delirium is a state of acute confusion.

What we do?
The European Delirium Association is a professional association providing a platform for practitioners, researchers, policy makers and other interested to network for the benefit of patients.
Our goal is to move forward with all those dedicated to delirium care and research, joining efforts to promote the disorder's visibility not only in the general public, but also in the medical professional setting.
