Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Inclusion criteria are: 1. any patient \>18 years of age admitted to the surgical ICU for \>48 hours; 2. Patients admitted to the ICU \<24 hours who have been in the hospital \>48 hours; 3. Patients who return to the ICU after being discharged from the ICU to the floor due a complication or need for higher acuity care. Exclusion criteria are: 1. Patients in whom CAM-ICU cannot be performed (severe dementia, stroke or other neurological condition, encephalopathy, mental retardation, severe psychiatric disorder, vegetative state, severe traumatic brain injury, deaf/blind, etc.); 2. Vulnerable patient populations (i.e. transplant recipients); 3. Patients who don't speak or understand English; 4. Current alcohol or substance abuse. Patients will be screened for eligibility on rounds daily. Study personnel will obtain informed written consent from patients or their families.
A psychiatry attending, psychiatry resident, or psychiatry nurse practitioner will round with the surgical ICU team on 7W daily until the target subject enrollment # of 52 is achieved. On a daily basis, the ICU attending will review the list of the ICU patients with the psychiatry team to determine if there are any changes to the patient's management required. The ABCDEF bundle will be implemented on daily rounds, which includes daily screening for delirium using the CAM-ICU scale.
Data which will be collected includes: age, gender, body mass index, history or alcohol or substance abuse, admitting diagnosis, dementia, comorbid conditions, admitting SOFA score, deliriogenic medications used during study enrollment, the interventions/medications used to treat delirium as designated by psychiatry (in intervention group) and the ICU team (control group), and the number of days from admission to study enrollment. Data on the incidence of ICU delirium, duration of delirium/mechanical ventilation, in-house mortality, ICU and total hospital length of stay will also be collected.
Descriptive statistics, including Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test, for continuous variables and χ2 or Fisher's exact test, for categorical variables, will be used to summarize the data and compare characteristics between the 2 groups. The incidence of delirium will be compared using χ2 test and multivariable logistic regression. Differences in the duration of delirium and MV between the intervention and control groups will be analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The length of stay will be compared by truncated negative binomial regression, while mortality rates will be compared via logistic regression. A sensitivity analysis will be performed in order to assess the possible confounding effect of the non-randomized nature of our study design. A propensity score model for receipt of standard care vs. psychiatric involvement will be performed in order to approximate a balanced covariate distribution between the 2 groups as that would be expected by randomization. The investigators will then use the propensity score for each subject to perform an inverse probability weighted comparison of the groups on our trial outcomes.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control
Patients will undergo standard of care including the use of the ABCDEF bundle; psychiatry team will not be involved on daily ICU rounds.
No interventions assigned to this group
Intervention
Patients will receive standard ICU care, including the use of the ABCDEF bundle, but will also receive the intervention of psychiatry involvement; the psychiatry team will participate in daily ICU rounds with the ICU team to help identify, prevent, and treat ICU delirium and identify other psychiatric disorders which may be otherwise undetected by the ICU team.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Patients admitted to the surgical ICU for \>48 hours OR
3. Patients admitted to the ICU \<24 hours who have been in the hospital \>48 hours
OR
4. Patients who return to the ICU after being discharged from the ICU to the floor due a complication or need for higher acuity care.
5. Patients admitted to any surgical service who are receiving care in the 7 West surgical ICU, who are either medically or conservatively managed (non-surgical) or surgically managed as part of their care
Exclusion Criteria
2. Patients who don't speak or understand English
3. Current alcohol or substance abuse
4. Patients who already have delirium within 24-48 hours of their ICU admission \[Defined as a positive CAM-ICU test, or based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition ( DSM-V) diagnostic criteria:
* Disturbance in attention (ie, reduced ability to direct, focus, sustain, and shift attention) and awareness.
* Change in cognition (eg, memory deficit, disorientation, language disturbance, perceptual disturbance) that is not better accounted for by a preexisting, established, or evolving dementia.
* The disturbance develops over a short period (usually hours to days) and tends to fluctuate during the course of the day.
* There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory findings that the disturbance is caused by a direct physiologic consequence of a general medical condition, an intoxicating substance, medication use, or more than one cause.\]
