Nebulized Versus Intravenous Dexmedetomidine for Sevoflurane Induced Emergence Agitation After Pediatric...
Emergence AgitationPediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy usually have a high incidence of postoperative EA, which increases the risk of developing postoperative airway obstruction and respiratory depression due to anatomical characteristics of operative location and increased susceptibility to opioid analgesics. the study will compare between nebulized and intravenous bolus of dexmedetomidine as a prophylaxis against postanesthetic emergence agitation in children undergoing tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy or adeno-tonsillectomy procedures.
The Role of Remazolam in Reducing the Incidence of Postoperative Delirium in Elderly Patients
Postoperative DeliriumThis 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.
Positive Imagery Therapy and the Incidence of Emergence Reactions With the Use of Ketamine
Procedural SedationEmergence DeliriumThe purpose of this study is to determine if positive imagery therapy while using ketamine in procedural sedation reduces the number of emergence reactions and impacts pre and post-procedural anxiety.

PIRA vs Standard Preoperative Education
AnesthesiaAnesthesia Emergence Delirium1 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of enhanced preoperative education using a Pediatric Interactive Relational Agent (PIRA), designed for children ages 4 through10 years and their families, compared to the standard preoperative education currently provided. The study will also look at any differences in anxiety between the two educational groups.

Mitigation of Postoperative Delirium in High-Risk Patients
Post-operative DeliriumDecision Support Systems2 moreAmong patients with cognitive impairment (CI) that undergo surgery, the risk for developing postoperative delirium (POD) is high (50%) and associated with further morbidity and mortality. Yet, 30-40% of POD cases are preventable with perioperative management. This randomized pragmatic clinical trial aims to assess incidence of POD in adult surgical patients with CI, as well as provider adherence to a set of 12 perioperative best practice recommendations for perioperative management. Electronic health record (EHR) data will be used to identify patients as high risk for developing POD and clinical decision support (CDS) prompts within the EHR will display best practices. Cases will be randomized to either the control group, usual care or the intervention which includes the high-risk alert and best practice prompts.
Deep Neuromuscular Block on Postoperative Delirium in Lumbar Surgery
Lumbar Spine DiseaseThe effect of deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB) during spine surgery reduced postoperative pain and bleeding in recent studies. Therefore by reducing these two factors, which were the contributing factors for postoperative delirium, deep NMB is expected to reduce the postoperative delirium. This study was designed to determine whether the deep NMB lowered the incidence of delirium after lumbar surgery.
Sleep and Circadian Rhythm Biomarkers of Postoperative Delirium
DeliriumPostoperative2 moreThe goal of this prospective cohort study is to assess potential differences in sleep biomarkers in older adult patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: To define sleep/circadian biomarkers of delirium (sleep duration, regularity, stability and timing of rhythm) in a prospective observational study. To determine if plasma Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology/inflammatory burden interacts with or moderates the relationship between a sleep/circadian biomarker and post-operative delirium (POD) risk. To determine whether sleep/circadian regulation interacts with the genetic risk of AD to influence POD/cognitive decline. Participants will be asked to: Donate several blood samples both intraoperatively and postoperatively Complete baseline and postoperative neurocognitive assessments Wear an actigraphy data collection watch for the two weeks prior to their surgery
Safe Brain Initiative, Operationalizing Precision Anaesthesia
Neurocognitive DisordersPost Operative Delirium17 morePerioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses and their institutions do not receive structured feedback regarding these aspects of each patient's well-being. They may therefore be unable to engage in the essential cause-and-effect learning necessary to evaluate and consecutively reduce such side effects. Effective guidelines conform prevention is the proven key to shielding our patients from adverse Outcomes. The Safe Brain Initiative's high-quality routine data-for-action is a sword and accelerator for moving towards patient-centred, precision care. Thus, establishing a foundation for value-based and patient-centred healthcare development. However, a turnkey real-world solution is challenging to develop and implement and requires substantial resources. As a result, such solutions are usually beyond the scope of a single institution. The SBI platform provides high-quality, real-world data to bridge this gap. It allows monitoring and in-depth analysis of cause and effect in the day-to-day routine of individuals, departments, and institutions. The SBI's approach is continuously improved and updated. An organization called the SBI Global Society oversees the quality and precision of science through experts in the field. At SBI Hospitals and Flagship centres, Masterclasses are conducted and can be attended alongside clinical immersions. SBI Solutions manages, develops, and provides technical and service support for the Safe Brain Initiative. Its service guarantees the professional and GDPR conform management of data handling and storage as well as the user-friendly functionality of the SBI-Dashboard solutions.
