Show answer

Correct answer 4

Key pointDelirium is a disturbance of consciousness that occurs suddenly, triggered by changes in physical condition, etc.

Explanation

Delirium is a temporary disturbance of consciousness triggered by changes in physical condition, such as dehydration, infection, fever, and medications, so 4 is correct.

  • 1: It develops suddenly, over a few hours to a few days, so it is wrong.
  • 2: There is a mild disturbance of consciousness (clouding of consciousness), and consciousness is not clear, so it is wrong.
  • 3: The central symptom is an attention disorder in which the person cannot focus or maintain attention, so it is wrong.
  • 5: It is seen most often from evening to night (nocturnal delirium), so it is wrong.
Explanation in Japanese

せん妄は、脱水・感染症・発熱・薬などの体調の変化を誘因として起こる一過性の意識障害なので4が正しい。

  • 1:数時間から数日の間に急激に発症するので誤り。
  • 2:軽い意識障害(意識の混濁)があり、意識は清明ではないので誤り。
  • 3:注意を集中・維持できなくなる注意障害が中心症状なので誤り。
  • 5:夕方から夜間に多くみられる(夜間せん妄)ので誤り。
