Patients with and without dementia were compared for recovery in cognitive scores and functional status.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n \n Of 122 patients with delirium who were admitted to the GMU over a 1\u2010year period, 82 (67.2%) had underlying dementia. There were no significant differences in age, gender, delirium severity, illness severity, cognitive performance, and functional status at admission to the GMU between groups, although patients with dementia had significantly higher comorbidity (Charlson's 2.27 vs 1.75,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.05). Significant cognitive and functional improvement was observed for the entire GMU cohort, with demented and nondemented groups capable of functional recovery (MBI gain of 20.43 vs 17.35, respectively,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.35).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n \n Elderly patients with dementia recovering from delirium have comparable potential for functional recovery as their cognitively intact counterparts in a delirium management unit focused on geriatric nursing care and rehabilitation.\n Journal of Hospital Medicine<\/jats:italic>\n
