Abstract Background Delirium affects approx. 10-30 % of patients over the age 65. Up to 70% cases are missed in Emergency Department (ED). results increased morbidity, mortality, length stay and decreased functional status with discharges residential care centres. ED is an independent predictor death within 6 months. Methods We completed audit which showed 40% those > 65 years were delir...

We report the synthesis and spectroscopic, structural electrochemical characterization of a new chromium(III) coordination compound namely bis(cyanato-κN)[meso-tetratolylporphyrinato]chromate(III) (cryptand-222)potassium dihydrate [K(crypt-222)][CrIII(TTP)(NCO)2]·2H2O (complex I). This crystallizes in orthorhombic crystal system with non-centrosymmetric space group C2221. The chromium potassium...
