Abstract
Poststroke delirium (PSD) is common and prognostically relevant, yet under‐detected. Mechanistic and biomarker research is constrained by reliance on an intermittently observed binary phenotype, while delirium reflects one severity level on a continuum of delirium‐related encephalopathy. Quantitative EEG (qEEG) may capture encephalopathy endotypes more directly and enable severity‐spectrum characterization.
