Brief Summary

Haloperidol is prescribed in high risk ICU patients concerning delirium (50% or more chance to develop delirium detected with the delirium prediction model PRE-DELIRIC, or patients with history of dementia or alcohol abuse)since the delirium protocol is changed and haloperidol is added as a prevention treatment we are gathering information what the effect is on several aspects of delirium

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Delirium incidence

    Delirium is diagnosed as minimal one positive CAM-ICU screening during complete ICU admission. Incidence rate is compared with historical cohort data

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • duration of delirium days on mechanical ventilator Length of stay in the ICU and in-hospital in-hospital mortality incidence of unplanned removal of tube incidence of delirium subtypes

    one year

  • Effect haloperidol on biomarkers

    one year

Study Arms (2)

Haloperidol prevention group

ICU patients with a high risk for delirium who are treated with haloperidol for preventive reason.

Control group

Historical cohort group of patients (2008-2009)with a determined risk of 50% or more for delirium who were not treated with haloperidol for preventive reason.
