Abstract

Delirium, a potentially reversible, acute-onset organic brain syndrome, is a behavioral manifestation of acute brain dysfunction associated with underlying medical conditions. It presents as marked and inconsistent mental changes characterized by dysregulated states of focus and cognition. It can be caused by several different causes, including infections, drugs, toxins, metabolic disorders, and a number of other medical conditions. This case report presents a 4-year-old girl with short bowel syndrome, who developed hyperactive delirium due to acute metabolic acidosis.

Özet

Potansiyel olarak geri dönüşümlü, akut başlangıçlı bir organik beyin sendromu olan deliryum, altta yatan tıbbi durumlarla ilişkili akut beyin işlev bozukluğunun davranışsal bir tezahürüdür. Düzensiz biliş durumları ile karakterize belirgin ve tutarsız zihinsel değişiklikler olarak ortaya çıkar. Enfeksiyonlar, ilaçlar ve toksinler, metabolik bozukluklar ve diğer tıbbi hastalıklar dahil olmak üzere birkaç farklı nedenden kaynaklanabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda, akut metabolik asidoz nedeniyle hiperaktif deliryum gelişen kısa barsak sendromlu 4 yaşında bir kız çocuğunu sunmaktadır.
