The mechanisms and predictor factors underlying delirum in sepsis are currently still unclear, but based on neurological clinical observations in patients with chronic sepsis, delirium in sepsis is a combination of neuroinflammation, impaired cerebral perfusion, impaired blood - brain barrier and neurotransmission. The aim of this study was to determine predictor factors in patients with delirium in sepsis at Prof. Dr. IGNG Ngoerah Denpasar for the period January 2022 to August 2023.

Delirium was defined by the Memorial Delirium Assessment Scale (MDAS) and predicting mortality use Chalson Age Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores. Results: Over 18 months, there were 62 patients with sepsis, both with and without delirium, who were treated in the room by the Neurology department in collaboration with the Psychiatry department at Prof. Dr. Dr. IGNG Ngoerah General Hospital Denpasar for the period January 2022 to August 2023. Overall, 35 (56.45%) patients were male and 27 (43.55%) patients were female. Where 49 (79.03%) patients had delirium and 13 (20.97%) patients without delirium.

In this study, there were no significant differences in MDAS scores between male and female patients and among different types of infections, but patients with sepsis had significantly higher MDAS scores compared with patients without sepsis (19.48? 3.72 vs 15.88?2.82; P
