OBJECTIVES: Delirium is a frequent complication in elderly and critically ill patients, associated with significant morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospitalization, increased healthcare costs, and long-term cognitive impairment, emphasizing the need for early identification and prevention strategies. In this study, we aimed to assess the association between pregabalin use and the risk of delirium in elderly intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
METHODS: This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to control for baseline confounders. Multivariate logistic regression, inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW), and subgroup analyses were conducted to validate the findings.
RESULTS: Out of 12,327 patients, 309 pregabalin users were matched with 1,236 non-users through 1:4 PSM. Pregabalin use was significantly associated with increased delirium risk in patients aged 60 and older, with odds ratios (ORs) of 1.72 (1.31-2.25), 1.90 (1.44-2.49), 1.89 (1.37-2.58), and 1.91 (1.58-2.31) across models. Subgroup analyses confirmed this association across most variables. Notably, the risk was significantly higher among patients not receiving analgesia (p for interaction <0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Pregabalin use is associated with an elevated risk of delirium in critically ill patients aged 60 and above. These findings have important implications for medication management and delirium prevention in the ICU.
