Abstrakt: This document is a letter written by a group of medical professionals expressing their concerns about an article titled "Recognition and Management of Delirium in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: Case Series From a Single-Center Level IV Intensive Care Unit." The authors of the letter raise concerns about the scientific premise, neurobiological assumptions, robustness of methods, and validity of the conclusions presented in the article. They argue that the diagnostic tools for delirium used in the article have not been adequately validated in the neonatal or infant population, and they caution against the use of antipsychotic medications in neonates and premature infants without robust preclinical and clinical data supporting their use.
