Filter by:The Sleep Optimization for Brain Health Outcomes in Older Surgical Patients (SLEEP-BOOST) is a pilot randomized, controlled, singled-blinded (participant) trial in major orthopedic joint surgery patients that will build on a previously clinically tested cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) mobile application paired with a wearable device (wrist actigraphy).
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 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 proposed intervention will examine two alternative methods for postoperative pain control. Two treatment arms of this study will include subjects who receive an erector spinae block (ESP) after induction of anesthesia but prior to the start of surgery and subjects who will receive a high volume of local anesthetic infiltration at the end of the procedure before emergence from anesthesia. The control group of subjects will undergo spinal surgery with general anesthesia but without any regional anesthesia. Outcome measurements include evaluation of serum inflammatory markers, pain scores, opioid usage and standardized evidence-based assessment methodologies.
Determining the efficacy of the BIS monitor in monitoring deep hypnotic states as well as intra- and post-operative outcomes in neurosurgery patients
Neurosurgery is a risk factor for delirium. Dexmedetomidine might reduce delirium by reducing neuroinflammation, improving postoperative analgesia and sleep quality. The the primary hypothesis is that perioperative administration of dexmedetomidine can reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium
Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) was reported to benefit the patients undergoing surgeries by reducing anesthetics consumption and decreasing anesthesia related adverse effects. Electroencephalogram (EEG) and EEG-related indicators are important indicators reflecting the conscious state of the brain, and different anesthetic drugs and anesthesia depths cause different EEG characteristic changes. The mechanism by which TEAS improves postoperative delirium (POD) is not clear, and whether changes in EEG characteristic parameters is involved needs to be further explored. Therefore, this study aims to observe the effect of TEAS at Neiguan and Shenmen acupoint on POD in elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery, and to explore the EEG related mechanism underlying TEAS improving POD.
The goal of this observational study is to learn the how to determine the mean arterial pressure(MAP) or blood pressure level to be maintained during non-cardiac surgery for optimal brain health in patients above the age of 60 undergoing major non-cardiac surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is there a way to tailor the blood pressure to be maintained in such patients during surgery for optimal brain health using non-invasive monitors that check the brains electrical activity, the electroencephalogram(EEG) monitor, and the brain's blood oxygen levels, the cerebral oximetry(CO) monitor? - How much does this optimal blood pressure level vary between patients? Participants will be asked to: - Complete a questionnaire at the time they enroll into the study, as well as a daily questionnaire to help determine their level of thinking and brain health. This questionnaire will be administered by a member of the study team. - They will also have an EEG and CO monitoring sticker placed on their foreheads. This will be connected to a monitor that will collect this data just before, during, and after their surgery. The data collected through these monitors will help us with our study goals.
To determine the overall prevalence of postoperative delirium (POI) and its association with different risk factors in order to establish prevention plans to reduce its incidence and/or duration in Spanish hospitals. To this end, patients over 18 years of age who underwent urgent and scheduled surgery requiring hospital admission under any type of anaesthesia during two specific days will be recruited and pre-, intra- and postoperative data will be collected.
