During the recent COVID-19 period, delirium was present in 38% of old patients admitted with delirium at the COVID ward of the Erasmus MC University Medical Center of Rotterdam. We do not know in which patients COVID-19 can cause delirium; however, considering the high prevalence of delirium in COVID-19 old patients and the potential serious consequences, attention is needed in order to reduce disability and mortality in this vulnerable category of patients.Keywords: delirium, old patients, COVID-19Mattace-Raso FPolinder-Bos HOosterwijk Bvan Bruchem-Visser RGoudzwaard JOudshoorn CZiere GEgberts ADove Medical Pressarticledeliriumold patientscovid-19GeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 15, Pp 2245-2247 (2020)
