Predictive value of the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment for Alcohol Scale, Revised (CIWA-Ar) score on admission for alcohol withdrawal delirium (AWD) in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD): A prospective observational study
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to determine the predictive value of the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment for Alcohol Scale, Revised (CIWA-Ar) score at admission for the onset of alcohol withdrawal delirium (AWD) in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Their findings indicate that the CIWA-Ar score is a significant predictor of AWD, with a cutoff score of 4 demonstrating high sensitivity and specificity, suggesting that even mild withdrawal symptoms warrant close monitoring to prevent complications.
