What Caused Shivering And High Blood Pressure In An Alzheimer S Patient?

Alzheimer s patient - 70s - was red and shaking with high blood pressure. He appeared confused a few days prior and when we took him to get treatment they kept him in the hospital. Anyone know the cause of the high blood pressure / confusion / shaking? (Confusion more than normal for him)
