Evidence is emerging that cognitive impairment, delirium and depression are very common in patients with renal disease. All of these conditions are associated with prolonged hospitalization and an increased risk of mortality. A good understanding of these conditions is key to their prevention, early intervention and management. This Review summarizes the clinical features of various forms of cognitive dysfunction that occur in individuals with renal disease and describes the evidence for the high burden of disease in such patients.
