Filter by:This international, multicentre prospective cohort study will assess whether perioperative duration and magnitude of mean arterial pressure (MAP) outside of an individual's cerebral autoregulation (CA) limits using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and transcranial Doppler (TCD) are associated with adverse neurological events. It is to investigate whether patients with a higher burden of cerebral haemodynamic insults have an increased incidence or poorer neurological outcomes. Associations between neurologic outcomes, neurobiomarkers and genetic tests will be explored.
Early postoperative negative behaviour (ePONB), such as pain, emergence delirium (ED) and hypoactive delirium, is a relevant clinical problem during recovery from anesthesia. Specifically, many children often present with different forms of negative behavior namely ED, hypoactive delirium or pain. Such negative behavior differs in terms of evolution, treatment, prognosis and clinical implications. Furthermore, there is overlap between tools used to measurement postoperative pain and ED. As a result, the assessment of the different forms of negative behavior are often compromised by the presence of postoperative pain. Therefore, the application of scales used to measure negative behaviour in postanesthetic, non-surgical patients aged 3 years and under scheduled for elective MRI may clarify the presence of ED, hypoactive delirium and pain. An improved understating of postanesthetic negative behavior is important in order to help implement appropriate measures so as to better treat these patients.
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.
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.
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.
As a novel ultra-short-acting benzodiazepines drugs, Remimazolam has been accepted for induction and maintenance of clinical anesthesia. Compared to the traditional benzodiazepines drugs, Remimazolam combines the safety of midazolam with the effectiveness of propofol, and also has the advantages of acting quickly, short half-life, no injection pain, slight respiratory depression, independent of liver and kidney metabolism, long-term infusion without accumulation, and has a specific antagonist: flumazenil. This study aims to investigate whether Remimazolam reduces the incidence of emergence agitation in children after ophthalmic surgery, compared to sevoflurane (RCT).
Remimazolam is an ultra-short acting benzodiazepine agonist which is used widely for general anesthesia and sedation. Remimazolam has several advantages. Remimazolam is rapidly metabolized by tissue esterase that it does not accumulate even after infusion for long periods of time. The presence of reversal agents (flumazenil) is also advantageous. Also, hemodynamic stability compared to propofol gives clinicians preference to use for geriatric anesthesia. However, the study on the effect of remimazolam compared to propofol on postoperative delirium have not been carried out. The purpose of the study is to compare the incidence of postoperative delirium and recovery profile in elderly patients undergoing orthopedic surgery using either remimazolam or propofol.
The study targets postoperative delirium in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery, with the aim to evaluate the functional baseline and proteomics implicated in pathogenesis, prevention strategies (such as anesthesia depth monitoring) and incidence in certain population groups.
This study is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial.The selected patients were randomly divided into remazolam general anesthesia group and propofol + midazolam general anesthesia control group according to computer randomization method. There were 65 patients in each group. Remazolam general anesthesia group (R group): Remazolam 0.4 mg/kg for rapid induction of loss of consciousness for anesthesia induction and 1 mg/kg/h for maintenance. Propofol + midazolam general anesthesia control group (group P): propofol 1.5 mg/kg + midazolam 0.05 mg/kg slow intravenous push until the patient's consciousness disappeared, then propofol 4-8 mg/kg/h Anesthesia was maintained. Except for different sedative drugs, the analgesic and muscle relaxant medication regimens were the same between the two groups. In the study, the application of inhaled anesthetics, other benzodiazepines and anticholinergic drugs was restricted, and the mean arterial pressure during the operation was kept above 60 mmHg to avoid perioperative hypotension, hypoxemia, and hypercapnia. Warm measures were used to maintain the patient's intraoperative body temperature above 36.0 °C. POD assessment was performed on the day before surgery and on days 1-7 after surgery.
Aortic valve stenosis is the heart valve disease with the highest prevalence among the elderly, and may lead to heart failure. Until recently, the only definitive treatment was surgical replacement (SAVR). However, the increased risk associated with the surgical procedure excluded patients with multiple co-morbidities. As the population is aging and more and more patients may present with aortic stenosis, the need of a less invasive approach has emerged. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) offered an alternative therapy for these high risk patients. This new method has seen worldwide acceptance, has been proven very beneficial for these patients, and therefore its indications have been expanded to intermediate risk patients, as well. Until recently, general anesthesia was the primary anesthetic technique for TAVR, but conscious sedation or monitored anesthesia care (MAC) is gaining more and more popularity lately. Our knowledge regarding the comparison between general anesthesia and MAC in TAVR procedures is derived mainly from observational studies and few randomized trials. MAC seems to be associated with less inotropic drug usage, shorter procedural times, shorter intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital length of stay. However, according to published data, there were no differences in 30-day mortality and complications between these two techniques. Even less are known about the most suitable anesthetic agent for MAC during TAVR. Many drugs have been used, with propofol and dexmedetomidine being the most popular. However, there are only few comparative studies and their results are not conclusive. This study compares MAC under propofol and MAC under dexmedetomidine for TAVR in order to examine which method of conscious sedation comes with more beneficial postoperative outcomes for the patients.
