Objective: Delirium duration is predictive of long-term cognitive impairment in intensive care
unit survivors. Hypothesizing that a neuroanatomical basis may exist for the relationship
between delirium and long-term cognitive impairment, we conducted this exploratory
investigation of the associations between delirium duration, brain volumes, and long-term
cognitive impairment. Design, Setting, and Patients: A prospective cohort of medical and
surgical intensive care unit survivors with respiratory failure or shock. Measurements …
