Hi Tassie,
I’m going to let @andreab answer your question about PICS and delirium. In the meantime, I’d like to connect you with others who have been dealing with post-operative delirium. @muriel66 @marield65 and @rckj talk about managing delirium in this discussion:

Tassie,
How long ago did you have surgery for lung cancer?

Hi ColleenMy wife had surgery to remove a cancerous lobe of her right lung nine days ago.Before that I had no knowledge of post operative delirium. The delirium has been ranging from severe with hallucinations to light with some memory loss. Yesterday was very traumatic but today very much less.
