Antipsychotic Treatment of Delirium in Critically Ill Children: A Retrospective Matched Cohort Study.

No significant adverse events seen in this small cohort of critically ill pediatric patients with delirium treated with antipsychotic therapy. Patients with early-onset delirium refractory to non-pharmacologic treatment may have a more effective response to antipsychotic therapy than patients with late-onset refractory delirium.
