Active clinical trials for "Emergence Delirium"

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) describes a condition where cognitive functions such as attention, perception, concentration, learning, abstract thinking and problem solving are impaired postoperatively. These changes can be resolved after weeks and months. In some cases, changes are permanent.

In this study, inhalation anesthesia procedure and intravenous anesthesia method will be compared in terms of emergence delirium and recovery time in children who are scheduled for dental treatment under general anesthesia.

Sleep is important in maintaining the physiological function of the human body. Recently several studies have reported that preoperative sleep quality is associated with postoperative emergence delirium (ED) The ED is a common in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia with sevoflurane, but studies on the association of sleep quality have been rare. The investigators, therefore, aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative delirium and pre and postoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients receiving strabismus surgery through this study

The investigators,according to the eligibility criteria,plane to choose 80 elderly anticipates who will undergo selective hip replacement surgery.This participants will be randomly divided into 2 groups:light anesthesia depth group(L Group) and deep anesthesia depth group (D Group).Before anesthesia induction,each participant will be given lumbar plexus and sciatic nerve block in order to control pain of interoperative and postoperative.During operation period,the L Group will be kept in light anesthesia depth(BIS:50-60),while the D group will be kept in deep anesthesia depth(BIS:35-45)--The BIS values in the range of 30-60 have been recommended in general anesthesia.After operation,a PCIA(patient controlled intravenous analgesia) analgesia pump will be given to each participant to control postoperative pain. The investigator will evaluate the mental state of participant with MMSE(mini-mental state examination) before surgery and review each participant with a CAM-CR for 3 days after surgery to assess the situation of postoperation delirium.intraoperative awareness,postoperative pain will also be investigated in postoperative days 1, 2, 3.

Strabismus surgery for children is a very common procedure, with a high incidence of emergence delerium in the recovery room. A combination of intravenous ketamine/dexmedetomidine, or ketodex, has been previously shown to reduce emergence delerium in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy. Here, we study its application in strabismus surgery.

The QTc interval is affected by heart rate, medications and changes in the autonomic nervous system. The endotracheal laryngoscopy, the necessary step during general anesthesia, prolongs QTc interval. Changes in the flow of ion currents could result from the genetic variation of myocardial ion channels by gene polymorphism. This study is to investigate the association of cardiac ion channel related gene polymorphism and prolonged QTc interval after endotracheal intubation in adult patients.

The investigators are performing this research study to understand the role of sleep disturbance on the incidence/severity of delirium after surgery. The investigators will study the brain using a polysomnography device (PSG), which records the brain's electrical activity during sleep.

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.

Acute post-operatory cognitive dysfunction states are one of the most important complications in older patients after surgery. Two acute cognitive dysfunctions have been described: postoperative delirium (PD) and postoperative subsyndromal delirium (PSSD). Patients who develop delirium, both as a complete or incomplete syndrome, have poor long-term outcomes, such as longer length of hospital stay, institutionalization at discharge, and even higher mortality, and consequently, the human and economic costs significantly increase for the health system. Here the research team will use an observational cohort, investigator blinded in two-center with a primary endpoint to validate the relative alpha power ratio as a predictive biomarker of postoperative cognitive dysfunctions.

Postoperative delirium (POD) remains one of most common complication in elderly patients receiving surgery, which is characterized by acute and fluctuating change in the level of cognition and consciousness. Previous studies have shown that surgery and anesthesia-induced acute peripheral inflammation and neuroinflammation may lead to delirium after surgery. Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) is a more easily accessible and comprehensive inflammation marker derived from monocyte, neutrophil, and lymphocyte count, which has been investigated to assess the prognosis of cancer and infectious diseases. However, the relationship between SIRI and POD has yet to be investigated.
