Evaluation of the association of anticholinergic burden and delirium in older hospitalised patients – A cohort study comparing 19 anticholinergic burden scales

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2022
AimsA recent review identified 19 anticholinergic burden scales (ABSs) but no study has yet compared the impact of all 19 ABSs on delirium. We evaluated whether a high anticholinergic burden as classified by each ABS is associated with incident delirium.MethodWe performed a retrospective cohort study in a Swiss tertiary teaching hospital using data ...

Association between anticholinergic burden and anticholinergic adverse outcomes in the elderly: Pharmacological basis of their predictive value for adverse outcomes

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2021
The use of anticholinergic drugs and other drugs with anticholinergic activity is highly prevalent in older people. Cumulative anticholinergic effects, known as anticholinergic burden, are associated with important peripheral and central adverse effects ...

Anticholinergic burden in Parkinson’s disease inpatients

European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2015
Anticholinergic toxicity can arise as a result of the cumulative burden of multiple medications and metabolites rather than be caused by a single compound. In this sense, prescribing drugs with anticholinergic properties to Parkinson's disease (PD) patients could contribute to aggravate some frequent problems of the disease, like dementia, urinary ...

Cognitive burden of anticholinergic medications in psychotic disorders [PDF]

open access: yesSchizophrenia Research, 2017
Patients with psychotic disorders are often treated with numerous medications, many of which have anticholinergic activity. We assessed cognition in relation to the cumulative anticholinergic burden of multiple drugs included in treatment regimens of participants from the Bipolar-Schizophrenia Network on Intermediate Phenotypes (B-SNIP) study ...

Atropinic (Anticholinergic) Burden in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, 2016
AbstractUse of atropinic drugs remains controversial in Parkinson's disease (PD) because there is insufficient evidence about their efficacy and they can induce serious adverse drug reactions. Atropinic risk scales were developed to help to identify atropinic drugs in prescription forms and to evaluate their burden in clinical practice.

Anticholinergic Burden in Hospice Patients With Dementia

American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®, 2018
Background: End-of-life (EOL) patients with dementia have an increased risk for anticholinergic toxicities due to age-related pharmacokinetic and physiologic changes in conjunction with an increased susceptibility to drug-induced cognitive impairments.

Anticholinergic Burden and Cognitive Impairment in Nursing Homes: A Comparison of Four Anticholinergic Scales

Drugs & Aging, 2023
Medications with anticholinergic effects are commonly used in nursing homes, and their cumulative effect is of particular concern for the risk of adverse effects on cognition.The relation between cognitive function and anticholinergic burden measured with four scales, the Anticholinergic Cognitive Burden (ACB) Scale, the Anticholinergic Risk Scale, the
