Delirium is a neurological condition which leads to disturbances in the mental abilities of a person. It causes mental confusion and emotional disruption. Delirium can be caused due to various factors such as old age, exposure to certain medications, alcohol abuse, surgery or other medical procedures and factors such as exposure to toxic or infectious agents, physical trauma, diet, and other behavioral and occupational factors. There are two types of delirium: Hyperactive delirium and Hypoactive delirium. In hyperactive delirium, patients become overactive (agitation in delirium). Currently, market players are carrying out research and development activities for evaluating new medicines for the management of agitation in delirium among the patients.
Research institutes and market players are indulged in conducting research and development activities for testing the safety and efficacy of the drugs for the treatment of agitation in delirium in critically ill ICU patients. For instance, in 2017, researchers at the University of California, San Diego, reported that sleep deprivation post-surgery causes delirium (confusion) in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Thus, they are conducting clinical trials for studying the role of Ramelteon, a medication that mimics the activity of melatonin (hormone which controls the body's circadian rhythm or sleep - wake cycle) in improving the sleep quality, thus improving sleep quality is expected to help in preventing occurrence of delirium in the patients post open-heart surgery. The study is expected to be completed by December 1, 2021.
Market players are indulged in launching new first-generation antipsychotic drugs for the treatment of delirium, which is expected to spur the growth of the global agitation in delirium management market. For instance, in 2017, Lupin Limited launched Quetiapine Fumarate Extended-Release Tablets (50 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg, 300 mg and 400 mg strengths), after receiving approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA).
