Resumen
El delirium en el adulto mayor es una complicación común observada en pacientes adultos mayores. Se puede clasificar en tres tipos según el nivel de estado de alerta y actividad física del paciente, estos son hiperactivo, hipoactivo y mixto. Todos los pacientes manifiestan principalmente una alteración del estado de conciencia y falta de atención. Para diagnosticarla se utilizan los criterios diagnósticos del manual diagnóstico y estadístico de los trastornos mentales en su quinta edición. El manejo inicial se basa en tratamiento farmacológico y no farmacológico.
