[quote=Anonymous]80 yr old father experienced delirium after surgery while in ICU. This is very common among elderly as their brains are not as protective against the anesthesia affects as a younger persons brain. Once he came home he was better within a week. However, it can take up to 90 days to get back to normal self. I have read that delirium can help set of dementia but thankfully this did not happen to my father.[/quote]
