Article Synopsis
- A study investigates the potential of orexin receptor antagonists as a treatment for delirium in ICU patients, comparing them to traditional antipsychotics.
- Results showed that patients treated with orexin receptor antagonists had significantly lower delirium scores after treatment compared to those receiving antipsychotics.
- The authors suggest that further research through a controlled trial is necessary to establish the efficacy of orexin receptor antagonists for treating delirium.
