Popis:	Delirium is a common syndrome in the elderly and is associated with high mortality and negative health outcomes. Over the last few years, there has been considerable research on delirium. This article summarizes recent studies. The initial literature search conducted for this article revealed over 2,000 articles published from January 2010 through March 2014. The initial list was refined to around 100 original research articles for closer review. Despite considerable research, there have been no breakthroughs in new treatment modalities for this rather complex yet common problem.
