Reducing Delirium After Cardiac Surgery: A Multifaceted Approach Of Perioperative Care

Delirium Clinical Trial

Official title:
Reducing Delirium After Cardiac Surgery: A Multifaceted Approach Of Perioperative Care

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium after cardiac surgery in the elderly patient. This proposal is a clinical trial designed to reduce delirium in patients undergoing cardiac surgery by replacing standard postoperative sedation protocols (propofol, midazolam, opioids) with a new alpha2-adrenergic receptor agonist (dexmedetomidine) possessing sedative, analgesic, and antinociceptive properties. Resource utilization analysis will be performed to determine cost effectiveness of the new treatment modality.

Clinical Trial Description

The proposed study will be a prospective, randomized, open label study comparing multimodal protocols for postoperative sedation after cardiac surgery. Patients will be randomly allocated to either dexmedetomidine or propofol (control) groups according to a computer generated randomization code in predetermined size blocks of four. ;

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Prevention
