Core Tip The results of this study show that delirium affects 25.91% of intensive care unit patients with severe pneumonia. Prolonged mechanical ventilation, elevated blood lactate levels, and higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) scores are independent risk factors for delirium development. Notably, diabetes, arterial oxygen saturation, and APACHE II score demonstrate significant three-way interaction effects, suggesting that delirium results from complex synergistic pathophysiological processes. Early identification of high-risk patients using these combined indicators may enable targeted preventive interventions, ultimately improving clinical outcomes in this vulnerable population.
