What is 4AT Delirium Assessment Tool Guide about?
The 4AT is a rapid assessment test for delirium that takes approximately 3 minutes to administer by a GP or nurse. It consists of four items assessing alertness, cognitive function, attention, and any acute changes in mental state, with scores indicating the likelihood of delirium or cognitive impairment. A score of 4 or above suggests possible delirium, while 1-3 indicates cognitive impairment, and a score of 0 does not rule out delirium but may require further testing.
