  1. ^Prediction model for delirium in ICU patients (PRE-DELIRIC) compared to the early prediction model for delirium in ICU patients (E-PRE-DELIRIC): negative ranks indicate the number of ICU physicians who scored PRE-DELIRIC lower; ties indicate no difference; positive ranks indicate the number of ICU physicians who scored PRE-DELIRIC higher
  2. *Null hypotheses were tested against two-sided alternatives
