Centre for Healthy Brain Ageing (CHeBA), Discipline of Psychiatry and Mental Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- * Over 16,000 patients were screened, revealing a high prevalence of CI (37.8%) and a significantly higher rate of hospital-acquired complications (HACs) in those with CI, but the intervention did not lead to a significant reduction in HAC rates.
- * The results showed variations in the program’s implementation across hospitals, and despite some slight overall reductions in HAC rates, these changes were not statistically significant, suggesting the need for further refinement in intervention strategies.
