Board\u2010certified psychiatrists assessed patients using the MDAS, confusion assessment method (CAM), and Mini\u2010Mental State Examination (MMSE). Another consultation\u2010liaison psychiatrist confirmed the diagnosis of delirium.

The mean MDAS score was 16.7 for delirium patients and 4.1 for nondelirium patients. The MDAS has good internal consistency, with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.912. Interrater reliability was 0.996 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.992\u20130.998). The diagnostic cut\u2010off value for the Mandarin version of the MDAS was 9, with a high sensitivity (93.1%) and specificity (96.9%). Factor analysis revealed a two\u2010factor structure; these factors accounted for 58.37% and 14.42% of the variance.
