07-SEPTEMBER-2008 03:17:44 - Organic brain syndrome Merge arrow It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into Delirium. Discuss April 2008 Organic brain syndrome Classification and external resources ICD-10 F06.9 ICD-9 310.9 DiseasesDB 9266 MedlinePlus 001401 eMedicine emerg/345 MeSH D019965 Organic brain syndrome is a general term referring to many acute and chronic physical disorders that cause impaired mental function. It does not usually include psychiatric disorders. Though OBS is a common diagnosis in the elderly, it is related to disease processes and is not an inevitable part of aging. Acute organic brain syndrome is an often temporary state of mental impairment, recently appearing as a result of intoxication, drug overdose, infection, pain, and many other physical problems affecting mental status. A more specific medical term for the acute subset of organic brain syndromes, is delirium. Contents 1 Associated conditions 2 Symptoms 3 Treatment 4 Other names 5 References Associated conditions Disorders that cause injury or damage to the brain and contribute to OBS include, but are not limited to: Alzheimer's Disease Concussion Encephalitis Epilepsy Fetal alcohol syndrome Hypoxia Intoxication/overdose caused by drug abuse including alcoholism Intracranial hemorrhage/trauma Korsakoff Syndrome Meningitis Stroke/transient ischemic attack TIA Withdrawal from drugs or alcohol Other conditions that may be related to organic brain syndrome include: clinical depression, neuroses, and psychoses, which may occur simultaneously with the OBS. Symptoms Symptoms of OBS vary with the disease that is responsible. However, the more common symptoms of OBS are confusion; impairment of memory, judgment, and intellectual function; and agitation. Often these symptoms are attributed to psychiatric illness, which causes a difficulty in diagnosis. Treatment Treatment of OBS varies with the causative disorder or disease. It is important to note that it is not a primary diagnosis and a cause needs to be sought out and treated.
