AWOL-style risk models are used in hospital delirium prevention pathways with published predictive performance studies.
Higher AWOL totals indicate greater predicted delirium risk and support proactive prevention strategies.
Use at admission to identify patients who may benefit from intensified delirium prevention and monitoring.
Prediction performance can vary across institutions and populations; local validation improves utility.
