Abstract
Background Postoperative Delirium (POD) is a disturbing reality for patients and their families. Absence of easy-to-use and accurate risk scores prompted us to retrospectively extract data from the electronic health records (EHR) to identify clinical factors associated with POD. We seek to create a multivariate nomogram to predict the risk of POD based upon the most significant clinical factors.
