Delirium Observation Screening Scale has no effect on in-hospital mortality in humans.
“No statistically significant correlations were found between DOS scores and in-hospital mortality, inpatient complication rates or discharge to higher level of care.”

Functional decline
downin humans1
Delirium Observation Screening Scale predicts functional decline in humans (r = -0.27, p = 0.04).
“There was a weak correlation between increasing DOS scores and functional decline as measured by change in Katz Index from admission to discharge (r = -0.27, p = 0.04).”

Delirium Observation Screening Scale predicts mobility in humans (r = 0.35, p = 0.007).
“as well as increasing DOS scores and decline in mobility on discharge (r = 0.35, p = 0.007).”

Delirium Observation Screening Scale predicts delirium duration in humans (r = 0.46, p < 0.001).
“There was a moderate correlation between increasing DOS scores and duration of delirium (r = 0.46, p < 0.001)”
