Filter by:The purpose of this study was to investigate whether perioperative use of low doses of opioids could reduce postoperative delirium .
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.
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.
The investigators are performing this research study to understand the role of sleep disturbance on the incidence of delirium after surgery.
This research project is an observational cohort study by prospective chart review of patients that underwent surgery in multi-centers, China, in the years 2020-2022. The purpose of this study is to compare the occurrence of postoperative delirium With Midazolam and Without Midazolam During Non-cardiac Surgery in Elders.
An assessment of difference in prespecified processed electroencephalography variables between cognitively intact older surgical patients who develop postoperative delirium compared to those who do not develop postoperative delirium
Patients over the age of 65 years are at increased risk for developing delirium and cognitive complications in the immediate postoperative period after noncardiac surgeries, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Previous small studies have shown beneficial effects of desflurane on postoperative cognitive recovery, which has been explained by the more rapid onset and offset of anesthesia as compared to sevoflurane. However, there are very limited data on the effect of desflurane on postoperative recovery and time until criteria for discharge from post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) are fulfilled in elderly patients undergoing minor-to moderate-risk noncardiac surgery. Therefore, the investigators will test the primary hypothesis that general anesthesia with desflurane significantly reduces the time between discontinuation of volatile anesthetics after the end of surgery and reaching ready for discharge from PACU criteria, which are defined as reaching a modified Aldrete score ≥ 12, as compared to sevoflurane in patients ≥ 65 years of age undergoing minor-to moderate-risk noncardiac surgery.
There is lack of attention to preoperative cognitive function and delirium in elderly who underwent surgery. The investigators are investigating different tools that can help to screen for cognitive dysfunction and delirium in the future.
To compare standard "Fentanyl - Tramadol - Paracetamol - Oxycodone" regimen to a multimodal painmanagement "pregabalin- minimal fentanyl-ketamine-lidocain-dexmedetomidine- paracetamol" to determine which therapy provides the most comfort, the fastest extubation time, the least pain and the least delirium.
Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) have been studying by clinicians, particularly by anesthesiologists, pretty long, however the most inspiring advancements were achieved during the last few decades. The most recent classification of PND which includes cognitive decline diagnosed before operation (described as neurocognitive disorder); any form of acute event (postoperative delirium) and cognitive decline diagnosed up to 30 days after the procedure (delayed neurocognitive recovery) and up to 12 months (postoperative neurocognitive disorder) was proposed in 2017. However at will one can notice at least one uncertainty that pertinent to the definition of delirium, emergency delirium and not mentioned in the classification discussed agitation. The objective of the study is to determine if there is a difference between emergence agitation and emergence delirium.
