背景:精神活性药物常引起老年人谵妄不良事件。然而,关于抗抑郁药与谵妄之间关系的数据很少.这里,我们调查了抗抑郁剂处方与老年人谵妄的药物警戒报告之间的关联.
方法:使用1967年至2022年世界卫生组织的VigiBase®全球药物警戒数据库,我们进行了不成比例的分析,以探究每种抗抑郁药(非选择性单胺再摄取抑制剂(NSMRIs),选择性5-羟色胺再摄取抑制剂(SSRIs),5-羟色胺-去甲肾上腺素再摄取抑制剂(SNRIs),单胺氧化酶抑制剂(MAOIs),α-2-肾上腺素能受体拮抗剂,和其他抗抑郁药)以及65岁或65岁以上人群的谵妄报告。我们在校正混杂因素之前和之后,使用逻辑回归模型计算了报告比值比(r-OR)及其95%置信区间([95CI])。对每种药物和按年龄组(65-74和75及以上)在每个类别内进行二次分析。我们还研究了并发谵妄和低钠血症的报告。
结果:我们的主要分析包括87,524例谵妄。在对混杂因素进行调整后,发现谵妄与除SNRIs以外的所有抗抑郁药类别之间存在显著关联.发现最常用的抗抑郁药与谵妄报告之间的关联存在组内差异。发现SSRIs合并谵妄和低钠血症的风险升高(4.46[4.01-4.96]),SNRI(1.25[1.07-1.46]),MAOIs(1.72[1.41-2.09]),和“其他抗抑郁药”类(1.47[1.30-1.65])。
结论:谵妄报告与抗抑郁药类别(SNRIs除外)之间存在显著关联。然而,在给定的抗抑郁药类别中,这种关联因药物而异。此外,这种关联并不能总是用抗抑郁药诱导的低钠血症来解释.
BACKGROUND: Psychoactive drugs frequently cause delirium adverse events in older adults. However, few data on the relationship between
antidepressants and delirium are available. Here, we investigated the association between antidepressant prescription and pharmacovigilance reports of delirium in older adults.
METHODS: Using the World Health Organization\'s VigiBase® global pharmacovigilance database from 1967 to 2022, we performed a disproportionality analysis in order to probe the putative associations between each antidepressant class (non-selective monoamine reuptake inhibitors (NSMRIs), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), alpha-2-adrenergic receptor antagonists, and other
antidepressants) and reports of delirium in people aged 65 or over. We calculated the reporting odds ratios (r-OR) and their 95% confidence interval ([95%CI]) with logistic regression models before and after adjustment for confounding factors. Secondary analyses were performed for each drug and within each class by age group (65-74, and 75 and over). We also studied the reports of concomitant delirium and hyponatremia.
RESULTS: Our main analysis included 87,524 cases of delirium. After adjustment for confounders, a significant association was found between delirium and all antidepressant classes other than SNRIs. Intraclass disparities were found for the association between the most frequently prescribed
antidepressants and reports of delirium. An elevated risk of reports of concomitant delirium and hyponatremia was found for SSRIs (4.46 [4.01-4.96]), SNRIs (1.25 [1.07-1.46]), MAOIs (1.72 [1.41-2.09]), and the \"other
antidepressants\" class (1.47 [1.30-1.65]).
CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant association between reports of delirium and antidepressant classes (other than SNRIs). However, this association varied from one drug to another within a given antidepressant class. Moreover, this association could not always be explained by antidepressant-induced hyponatremia.
