Figure 1

Overlap between DSM-IV and strict versus relaxed interpretations of DSM-5 delirium criteria for the pooled dataset (n = 768). Note: Relaxed interpretation of DSM-5 criteria allows for considerable overlap with DSM-IV with respect to delirium diagnosis, while strict interpretation only identified 30% of DSM-IV cases as delirium.
