Delirium in Covid-19: Germany-wide Covid-19 Intensive Register
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The global pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus is confronting the German health system with a novel pathogen. This means that a timely evaluation of all available results is required. In the field of intensive care in particular, there are significant gaps in knowledge, particularly with regard to delirium. In this respect, this study also serves directly to investigate the pathways of delirium outcome in COVID-19 patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of delirium [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Delirium is measured by validated screening scores.
Secondary Outcome Measures

Monitoring of t-cell population
- Toxic-drug factors [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Toxic-drug factors are measured by concomitant medication.
- Sociodemographic factors [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Sociodemographic factors are measured by Audit, Fagerström, occupation, age, gender, cognitive status.
- Breathing hours [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Breathing hours are measured by non-invasive and invasive ventilation.
- Length of intensive care unit stay [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Length of intensive care unit stay is measured in days of stay in the intensive care unit.
- Length of hospital stay [01.01.2020 - 31.07.2020]
Length of hospital stay is measured in days of stay in hospital.
- Adverse events [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Adverse Events defined by thromboembolic events, nosocomial infections, septic shock, acute renal failure, heart attack, post-intensive care syndrome and death are recorded until hospital discharge.
- Post Intensive Care Unit Syndrome (PICS) [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Post Intensive Care Unit Syndrome (PICS) is measured by a validated battery (composite endpoint).
- In-hospital mortality [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Mortality is measured in the hospital
- Mortality [01.01.2020 - 21.02.2022]
Mortality is measured until 180 days
