Pilot study will explore whether AI headset can help reduce delirium and delay post-delirium cognitive decline

Johns Hopkins researchers are hoping an AI-equipped headset can help lessen the effects of delirium. The headset tracks eye movements with an infrared camera and can send automated and recorded audio messages as well as play music. Clinicians will investigate if such a device can help reduce the duration of delirium, and they will also look at how decreased delirium affects long-term cognition by evaluating patients six months after discharge.
