Abstract

Delirium is a frequently reported significant complication in acute and critically ill patients. Multimodal interventions can potentially decrease delirium incidence and severity by reducing predisposing factors. Previous research has documented the efficacy of delirium assessment and management interventions. However, the heterogeneity and complexity of these multimodal interventions make them challenging to disseminate and integrate into clinical practice. To support nurses in decision-making for delirium care, a clinical decision support system (CDSS) can increase situational awareness by reducing the cognitive load and facilitating relevant clinical information gathering. It can have a positive impact on nursing efficacy as well as on patient outcomes. This scoping review aims to map the existing literature on the use of CDSS to deliver multimodal interventions in delirium care for ICU adults, explore how it has been applied in this context, and identify gaps in the existing literature.
