According to the ICD-10 presence of any three of these symptoms indicate alcohol withdrawal. However, severe withdrawal is usually characterized by seizures, hallucinations, increased psycho-motor activity, and disturbing tremors.
- DT is a clinical condition that comprises of aforementioned symptoms of both delirium and alcohol withdrawal. Therefore DT does not implicate causality; i.e. delirium in DT might not be solely due to alcohol withdrawal. This is important to note because DT is usually associated with other risk factors (e.g. electrolyte imbalance, infections, head injury) for delirium
