Filter by:Intraoperative hypothermia is common in patients having major surgery and the compliance with intraoperative temperature monitoring and management remains poor. Studies suggest that intraoperative hypothermia is an important risk factor of postoperative delirium, which is associated with worse early and long-term outcomes. Furthermore, perioperative hypothermia increases stress responses and provokes immune suppression, which might promote cancer recurrence and metastasis. In a recent trial, targeted temperature management reduced intraoperative hypothermia and emergence delirium. There was also a trend of reduced postoperative delirium, although not statistically significant. This trial is designed to test the hypothesis that intraoperative targeted temperature management may reduce postoperative delirium and improves progression-free survival in older patients recovering from major cancer surgery.
The rate of postoperative delirium in patients who underwent cardiac surgery is very high. Different predictors and/or scores were studied for the prediction of Post Operative Delirium (POD)after heart surgery, but none of them was validated. The investigators aim to explore the role of pupillary alterations during anesthesia in open-heart surgery. The goal of this prospective study is to evaluate if pupil alterations during cardiac surgery, evaluated by an automated pupillometer (NPi-200) ( AP), could predict postoperative delirium.
Prevention of Postoperative Delirium in the care of Elderly Patients. A Monocentric, Prospective Intervention Study With the Question of Whether the Incidence, Length and Severity of Postoperative Delirium Can be Reduced by Implementing a Standardised, Multidimensional Delirium Management Protocol.
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a frequent disorder of consciousness, arousal and attention in elderly patients following surgery. The glymphatic system is a newly discovered waste cleaning system of the brain. Glymphatic transport of CSF has been shown to be impaired by perioperative factors. Reduced glymphatic transport has been related to a vicious cycle of neuroinflammatory marker build-up, leading to increased glymphatic transport impairment, leading eventually to neuronal damage and hence cognitive impairment. Therefore, glymphatic transport impairment has been suggested to be an important mechanism underlying POD. But not everyone who undergoes surgery presents POD, so what makes certain patients susceptible to POD? It has been suggested that glymphatic transport may already be impaired at preoperative baseline, which, with the added burden of perioperative strain on the system, 'tilts' the patient into POD. The primary aim of the current study is to measure glymphatic transport in patients preoperatively and assess whether patients who present POD ('POD patients') show impairments in preoperative glymphatic transport, relative to patients who do not present POD ('noPOD patients'). Two aspects of glymphatic transport will be assessed using two noninvasive MR techniques - fast-acquisition BOLD-fMRI and DTI-MR. POD will be assessed using the 3D-CAM questionnaire and patients will also be assessed preoperatively for symptoms of depression, state/trait anxiety and cognitive status using standardised self-report measures.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial in children 3-9 years of age undergoing myringotomies at Washington University in St. Louis to assess the impact of perioperative personalized music on the incidence of emergence agitation.
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common and severe complication in patients undergoing major surgery, especially in the elderly. POD has been proven to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality, institutionalization, and high healthcare costs. This retrospective cohort study aimed to use machine learning methods to develop clinically meaningful models to support clinical decision making.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare electroencephalogram (EEG) guided propofol sedation versus standard care in paediatric patients aged 6-16 undergoing oesophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are whether EEG guided propofol sedation will result in: - faster wake up time - reduced time to discharge - reduced cumulative propofol dosage - lower incidence of intraoperative adverse events - no difference in intraoperative undesirable movement - lower incidence and severity of emergence delirium - lower intraoperative depth of sedation Participants will wear an EEG sensor (Sedline) prior to undergoing propofol sedation until they wake up post procedure.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Efficacy of low dose propofol(0.5 mg/kg) vs placebo given at the end of sevoflurane anesthesia for prevention of emergence agitation in pediatric patient undergoing MRI scan. The main question it aims to answer is "Can low dose propofol reduce the incidence of emergence agitation after general anesthesia?" Participants will be given propofol 0.5 mg/kg or saline according to the allocated group at the completion of MRI scan
Recovery and emergence agitation is a problem that occurs after anesthesia and requires urgent intervention. The effects of changes in EEG waves during anesthesia or undesirable deep periods in Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring on recovery agitation are the subject of this research.
This study will be a pilot randomized controlled trial that will determine the effect of an indicator of delirium risk, which will be delivered either via a paper form or via the electronic medical record, on (1)postoperative delirium incidence; and (2)the development of long term cognitive decline and dementia.
