Filter by:The objective of this study is to test the effects of caffeine on neurocognitive and clinical recovery after major surgery. Specifically, this trial tests the primary hypothesis that caffeine will reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium.
Single-celled sequencing for evaluating differences in gene expression patterns in different cell types of the dynamics of a means of this research as a starting point, to study the postoperative delirium and chronic pain at the cellular level changes the contents of a cell, reveal its occurrence and development of the role of gene regulation, find targets and biomarkers, and to provide new ideas for its pathogenesis, To provide theoretical basis support for its prevention, clinical diagnosis and treatment.
We investigated the relationship between fasting times and delirium in children undergoing MRI under anesthesia. Paediatric Anaesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale, last oral intake time and type of food (solid-liquid) and fasting time, laryngospasm, desaturation (SpO2 <95%), bradycardia, allergy, nausea and vomiting were recorded.
This is a pilot study to evaluate the use of remote cognitive testing to identify patients who may have cognitive vulnerability and may benefit from cognitive care pathways. Participants in this study are asked to complete a smartphone battery of thinking, memory, speech, and motor function tests on their smartphone.
This Clinical trial tests the efficacy of using the PARO robotic seal to decrease agitation in hospitalized older adults with dementia and/or delirium. This clinical trial also tests the efficacy of the cleaning protocol for the robot. This randomized control trial includes a one hour interaction with the PARO robot two days in a row compared to an attention control with the researcher sitting with the participant in their room for one hour two days in a row. The outcomes being evaluated include both qualitative and quantitative data. Qualitative data from videotaped interactions with the persons interacting with the PARO Robot include episodes of agitation, and emotional responses to the robot via facial expressions. The quantitative outcomes include the Agitation, use of 1:1 sitters, use of psychoactive medications and length of stay.
Thi investigators aims to observe the impact of perioperative body temperature and the noise of operating room on postoperative delirium for elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery. And based on this study the investigators aimed to explore the potential risk factors of postoperative delirium for elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery.
To explore the correlation between tear metabolomics and POD. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of tear metabolomics between POD and non-POD elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery, to clarify the correlation between tear metabolomics and POD, and to find tear markers related to POD.
Postoperative agitation and emergence delirium describe a spectrum of symptoms of early postoperative negative behavior, in which the child experiences a variety of behavioral disturbances including crying, thrashing, and disorientation during early awakening from anaesthesia. The symptoms are common with a reported incidence of approximately 25%. Some clinical trials have studied the effect of prophylactic oral melatonin for reducing the risk of emergence agitation in children, some finding a considerable dose-response effect. Melatonin has a low bio-availability of approximately 15 %. The safety of exogenous melatonin for pediatric patients has been studied with no apparent serious adverse effects, even at repeated short-term use of high doses of intravenous melatonin. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the prophylactic effects and safety of intravenous melatonin administered intraoperatively for prevention of postopreative agitation and emergence delirium in children after an elective surgical procedure. The study is designed as a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
This study is designed to test the hypothesis that, for older orthopedic patients who developed postoperative delirium, combining buccal acupuncture with routine care will shorten delirium duration and relieve delirium severity.
1. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture on POD in diabetic patients undergoing surgery, to provide effective prevention and treatment measures of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine for reducing the incidence of postoperative delirium in high-risk groups, and to provide clinical basis for further promotion of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine anesthesia in the future. 2. To investigate the relationship between POD and rSO2 in diabetic patients undergoing surgery. To clarify the predictive value of intraoperative rSO2 monitoring on postoperative cognitive function in patients with diabetes, and to explore the effect of acupuncture on cerebral blood flow perfusion in patients with diabetes.
