Clinical Trial Summary

To assess the effect of Dexmedetomidine on serum Tau-217 protein and its relation to the incidence and severity of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients undergoing major surgery under general anesthesia.


Description:

to assess the effect of dexmedetomidine on serum Tau-217 protein through measuring serum Tau-217 protein preoperative and postoperative period and comparing the 2 measurements , assessing the cognitive dysfunction in the elderly patients and comparing the correlation between the cognitive dysfunction with serum tau-217 level also assessing the neuroprotective effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative cognitive dysfunction and its relation with serum Tau-217 level.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Heart Rate changes in the intraoperative period after induction of anesthesia and every 10 minutes till the end of surgery and postoperative period after 1 hour and every hour till 6 hours postoperative then every 6 hours Heart Rate will be measured in beat/min 2 years
Other Mean Arterial Blood Pressure changes in the intraoperative period after induction of anesthesia and every 10 minutes till the end of surgery and postoperative period after 1 hour and every hour till 6 hours postoperative then every 6 hours Mean Arterial Blood Pressure will be measured in mmHg/min 2 years
Primary the effect of dexmedetomidine on serum Tau-217 protein value. estimation of the effect of dexmedetomidine on serum Tau-217 protein in postoperative period. 2 years
Secondary to evaluate the postoperative cognitive dysfunction using Mini-Mental State Scale in both the placebo and dexmedetomidine group. evaluation of the postoperative cognitive dysfunction by Mini Mental State Scale as >25 is recorded normal while less than <24 is positive for cognitive dysfunction. 2 years
