Altered mental status (AMS) can be an early warning sign of serious conditions, yet it's often overlooked or dismissed as simple confusion. In this episode, critical care nurse practitioner Christian Guzman breaks down the complexities of AMS and its many causes. Christian walks us through a systematic approach to assessing and managing patients with AMS, from performing key neurological exams to interpreting critical lab values. You'll learn about surprising medications that can affect cognition, especially in older adults, and how to differentiate between common causes of confusion and more urgent scenarios.
