Active clinical trials for "Emergence Delirium"

Postoperative pain is a significant risk factor for delirium. This clinical trial will search whether analgesia produced by erector spinae block in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgeries reduces delirium or not!

Surgery or trauma may cause serious problem to patients, especially for senile ones, like postoperative delirium or more postoperative complications. Here, we conduct a investigation of SFI for preventing the happening of POD or postoperative complications.

Postoperative delirium (POD) and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) occur in 11-51% of patients after surgery, and its prevalence increases with age. The occurrence of delirium is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospital stay, worse functional recovery. Orthopedic procedures and specifically joint replacements have been considered as a major risk for development of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). Approximately 13-44% of patients will develop CPSP after knee or hip arthOpioid abuseroplasty. CPSP may cause the discomfort, distress, disability and opioid abuse. Mounting evidence has revealed that inflammation triggered by surgical trauma plays a key role in POD, POCD and CPSP. Recent studies found that vagus nerve stimulation showed the suppression of inflammation. In this study, the effect of perioperative transauricular vagus nerve stimulation on the prognosis of patients undergoing arthroplasty will be investigated, providing potential solutions for the prevention and treatment of postoperative cognitive dysfunction, postoperative delirium and chronic postsurgical pain.

Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common complication, and the incidence of POD after deep brain stimulation(DBS) implementation ranges from 10% to 40%. Previous studies suggested that aging and existing non-motor symptom were independent risk factors for POD after supratentorial tumor resections. Therefore, patients undergoing DBS are high-risk populations for POD. A lot of trials show that dexmedetomidine might help to reduce the incidence of delirium in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. However, the impact of dexmedetomidine on POD for patients undergoing DBS was seldom reported. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on POD in patients with Parkinson' Disease undergoing DBS.

Postoperative delirium (POD) is common in elderly patients recovering from surgery and anesthesia. POD has adverse effects on early and long-term prognosis. The incidence of POD increases with age and patients with preoperative cognitive changes or coexisting diseases. The bispectral index (BIS) is an electroencephalographic measurement commonly used to monitor the depth of anesthesia. Low intraoperative BIS value (BIS<40) and prolonged duration of low BIS value maybe risk factors of POD. A small sub-study of BALANCED Anaesthesia Study demonstrated a protective effect of targeting a BIS of 50 to reduce POD compared with a BIS of 35. The stability of BIS during general anesthesia may affect the risk of POD in elderly patients. Therefore, it is very important to maintain a stable BIS value as much as possible during general anesthesia surgery, and a general anesthetic with good BIS stability is even more needed in clinical practice. Cyclopofol is a new type of anesthetic/sedative that reportedly provides good efficacy and safety. Cyclopofol has a more stable effect on BIS, so whether the use of cyclopofol in elderly patients undergoing orthopedic surgery can reduce the occurrence of POD, improve prognosis, and exert a brain protective effect will be of great importance and clinical research value.

Effect of caudal nalbuphine on postoperative emergence agitation in pediatrics undergoing infra-umbilical surgeries and pain assessment

To compare the efficacy of the pre-operative nebulization of a combination of dexmedetomidine and ketamine versus nebulization of dexmedetomidine alone for sedation and prevention of emergence delirium in children undergoing cleft palate repair surgeries.

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture on POD in diabetic patients undergoing surgery, to provide effective prevention and treatment measures of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine for reducing the incidence of postoperative delirium in high-risk groups, and to provide clinical basis for further promotion of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine anesthesia in the future. To investigate the relationship between POD and rSO2 in diabetic patients undergoing surgery. To clarify the predictive value of intraoperative rSO2 monitoring on postoperative cognitive function in patients with diabetes, and to explore the effect of acupuncture on cerebral blood flow perfusion in patients with diabetes.

Emergence agitation (EA) is a transient, self-limited, non-fluctuating state of psychomotor excitement, which closely revolves around the emergence of general anesthesia. Uncontrolled EA during the recovery period increases the potential risk of injury to patients and medical staff, resulting in varying degrees of adverse consequences, such as elevated blood pressure, incision rupture, bleeding, cardio-cerebrovascular accidents and so on, leading to a great waste of resources. Accumulating scientific evidence indicates that the incidence of EA is related to the use of perioperative sedative drugs. As a novel ultra-short-acting benzodiazepines drugs, Remimazolam has been accepted for induction and maintenance of clinical anesthesia. Compared to traditional benzodiazepines drugs, Remimazolam combines the safety of midazolam with the effectiveness of propofol, and also has the advantages of acting quickly, short half-life, no injection pain, slight respiratory depression, independent of liver and kidney metabolism, long-term infusion without accumulation, and has a specific antagonist: flumazenil. This study aims to investigate whether perioperative sedation of Remimazolam besylate, propofol, and sevoflurane have different effects on the incidence of emergence agitation and hemodynamics in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery.

Postoperative delirium (POD) is one of the most frequent neurological complications in elderly patients and is closely associated with longer ICU stay and hospitalization, deterioration of long-term neurocognitive function, and increased mortality. The incidence of POD is significantly higher in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery than in other populations. Therefore, the prevention of POD is an important clinical problem to be solved urgently. In this study, we intend to observe the effect of RIPC on the prevention and treatment of POD in patients undergoing cardiac surgery through a prospective randomized controlled trial.
