About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for Delirium focused on measuring bispectral index monitoring, anesthesia depth
Eligibility Criteria

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
Placebo Comparator
Arm Label
Bis Guided light anesthesia
Standard of Care
Arm Description
Patients are monitored by bispectral index and held under light anesthesia (BIS level 45 to 60)
Patients receive standard of care anesthesia, BIS monitor was covered with a blind
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
postoperative delirium by NUDESC
in the hospital with NUDESC Score
postoperative dementia and cognitive deficit By MMSE and MAT Test
in the hospital by MMSE and MAT (automated computerized test), after discharge by a standardized questionnaire
awareness, memory function
implicit and explicit memory for intraoperative wakefulness and memory functions in general as changing conditions due to anesthesia
Secondary Outcome Measures
mortality and morbidity
death rate (in hospital and longterm mortality (death/month)) and complication rate (in hospital and longterm morbidity (complications/month))

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aimed to determine whether targeting bispectral index (BIS) readings of 55 (light anaesthesia) was associated with a lower incidence of delirium, dementia (POD), POCD and mortality but higher rates of awareness and complications than a standard of care anaesthesia blinded to depth monitoring.
Detailed Description
Design: Randomised-controlled, double blind study, monocentric Setting: Level 2 medical center, major surgery (non cardiac) Ethics: Ethical approval for this study (Ethikkommission II der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg 2013-627N-MA) was provided by the Ethical Committee II University Medicine Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Germany (Chairperson Prof W. Striebel) on Mai 12th 2008.
Patients: n=130, aged > 70y Intervention: Light anesthesia (BIS 55 +/-5) vs. Standard of Care (BIS- blinded) Main outcome measures: Incidence of awareness, delirium, postoperative cognitive deficit (POCD), dementia (POD), memory (MAT with a computerized score for verbal working&short term, figural working&short term memories and well as attention level) Second aims: mortality, complications
