Risk Control of Environmental Factors Involved in the Onset of Delirium in the Elderly in Hospital

本研究的目的是探讨一种从老年人对环境因素的反应来预测发病风险，并降低环境因素引起的发病风险的方法。第一阶段调查了住院老年患者对环境因素与谵妄发病相关的认识水平。在第二阶段，将目标群体分为有谵妄发作者和无谵妄发作者，并进行对比验证过程。05)两组受试者在以下几个方面的物理环境和人类环境之间的差异：●房间的位置●护士来访的频率●是否有加剧压力的医疗检查●与其他病人的互动●是否存在加剧焦虑的因素这些差异被认为与谵妄的发作有关。

The purposes of this study is to examine a method that, from reactions displayed by the elderly to the environmental factors, predicts the risk of onset, and reduces the risk of onset due to the environment.In the first stage, the hospitalized elderly patients' level of recognition of environmental factors involved in the onset of delirium was investigated. In the second stage, the target group was divided into those with onset of delirium and those without onset of delirium and a comparative verification process was conducted.The results of this study showed that differences were observed(<. 05) between the two participant groups regarding the physical and human environment in the following categories :●The location of the room●The frequency of visits of the nurses●The presence or absence of medical examinations that exacerbate stress●Interaction with other patients●The presence of elements that heighten anxietyThese differences are thought to be connected to the onset of delirium.
