摘要:Background Elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) may present delirium but its clinical relevance is unknown.This study aimed at determining the clinical associated factors,and prognostic implications of delirium in old-aged patients admitted for NSTE-ACS.Methods LONGEVO-SCA is a prospective multicenter registry including unselected patients with NSTE-ACS aged ≥ 80 years.Clinical variables and a complete geriatric evaluation were assessed during hospitalization.The association between delirium and 6-month mortality was assessed by a Cox regression model weighted for a propensity score including the potential confounding variables.We also analysed its association with 6-month bleeding and cognitive or functional decline.Results Among 527 patients included,thirty-seven (7%) patients presented delirium during the hospitalization.Delirium was more frequent in patients with dementia or depression and in those from nursing homes (27.0% vs.3.1%,24.3% vs.11.6%,and 11.1% vs.2.2%,respectively;all P < 0.05).Delirium was significantly associated with in-hospital infections (27.0% vs.5.3%,P < 0.001) and usage of diuretics (70.3% vs.49.8%,P =0.02).Patients with delirium had longer hospitalizations [median 8.5 (5.5-14) vs.6.0 (4.0-10) days,P =0.02] and higher incidence of 6-month bleeding and mortality (32.3% vs.10.0% and 24.3% vs.10.8%,respectively;both P < 0.05) but similar cognitive or functional decline.Delirium was independently associated with 6-month mortality (HR =1.47,95% CI:1.02-2.13,P =0.04) and 6-month bleeding events (OR =2.87;95% CI:1.98-4.16,P < 0.01).Conclusions In-hospital delirium in elderly patients with NSTE-ACS is associated with some preventable risk factors and it is an independent predictor of 6-month mortality.
