The Long-Term Cognitive, Psychological, and Physical Effects of ICU Delirium in Elderly People

Sikandar H. Khan, D.O., is the presenter.

Participants will be able to do the following by the conclusion of this session:

1) Identify both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies (including innovative interventions under testing such as music and virtual reality) for ICU delirium patients.

2) Recognize the long-term cognitive, psychological, and physical implications of intensive care unit delirium (known as post-intensive care syndrome (PICS)) and the impact of PICS on family (PICS-F).

3) Discover why elderly persons are more likely to have PICS.

4) Be familiar with a collaborative clinic approach for ICU survivors and family members/caregivers, as well as ongoing clinical research on ICU survivors.

Dr. Khan is an assistant professor of medicine at Indiana University School of Medicine in the division of pulmonary and critical care. He earned B.S. and B.A. degrees in his undergraduate studies at Loyola University Chicago in Chicago, Illinois. He received his medical degree from Des Moines University College of Osteopathic Medicine (DMUCOM) in Des Moines, Iowa, and finished his internal medicine residency in Indianapolis at Indiana University Health (IU Health) in 2015. In 2018, he earned his master’s degree in clinical research from Indiana University. He joined the faculty of the Regenstrief Institute Center for Aging Research as a physician scientist after completing a pulmonary critical care residency at IU Health in June 2018. Dr. Khan’s research interests include delirium in the critical care unit (ICU). This includes delirium diagnostics, the development of pathophysiologic models linking delirium and respiratory failure, the definition of patient-centered outcomes and risk factors associated with delirium, the implementation of delirium management programs, the establishment of an ICU survivorship clinic at Indiana University Health, and the testing of music as a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce delirium.
