The video provides a very care explanation to the concept of delirium. It introduce the cause, possible mechanism, risk factors and sign and symptoms of delirium in a way that is interesting and easily understood. It also compares and contrast delirium and dementia, which are two concepts that can be easily confused. After watching the video, I have a clearer and more comprehensive understanding on delirium.
