Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction After Propofol Anesthesia for Noncardiac Surgery

Patients ASA III1 more

Background: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients after noncardiac surgery is a common problem. Therefore,this study was designed to assess POCD after closed-loop coadministration of propofol and remifentanil guided by bispectral index in comparison to intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery. Methods: After approval of the local ethical committee was obtained, 204 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I-III; age, > 55 yr) undergoing surgery (duration, > 1 h) were enrolled into this pospective randomized monocenter study. Patients received anesthesia 3 days after using a neuropsychological test battery.

POCD in Elderly Patients Following Desflurane or Sevoflurane General Anesthesia

1. Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

The use of desflurane in elderly subjects (>65 years old) undergoing general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation will result in decreased POCD compared to sevoflurane if the patient's MAP is within 20% of the patient's baseline and the cerebral suppression state index stays within the moderately anesthetized range during general anesthesia.

Risk Factors for Early POCD in the Patients With PSM Undergoing CRS-HIPEC

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Objectives to investigate the incidence and associated factors for early postoperative cognitive dysfunction in the patients with peritoneal surface malignancies undergoing cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemo-therapy(CRS-HIPEC).Methods fifty patients aged 18-65 yr were included in the research and were grouped base on the score of neuropsychological assessments which had done in the ward at 7 day before and after the surgery. The investigators monitored various indicators in the perioperative period, such as age, body weight, sex, education, duration of operation, intraoperative blood loss, cardiovascular events, amount of fluid infused per hour. Meanwhile, the concentration of serum amploid A (SAA),IL-1beta,TNF-alpha,HMGB1,S100b,cortisol and Abeta40 were measured at the various stage of the operation and 24 hours after the operation, and the differences of data between postoperative cognitive dysfunction(POCD) and Non-POCD groups were analyzed.

Evaluation of Blood Biomarkers as an Indicator of Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is defined as a cognitive decline arising after surgery. In the present study, the authors evaluate the level of D-Amino Acid Oxidase, D-serine and Serine in blood as an indicator of postoperative cognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery.

Olfactory Function and Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

To study the correlation of POCD with olfactory function. To explore whether enhanced olfactory stimuli can reduce the risk of POCD as a preventive strategy.

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction in Elderly

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Interventional Study of Early Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction in Elderly Patients Undergoing General Anesthesia The main purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of early postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients and its time course. This study will first evaluate the preoperative cognitive function of elderly patients based on several criteria including complete patient history, laboratory and instrumental exams, and the following measures in order to identify conditions and pathologies that may influence cognitive function. Mini Mental State Examination Geriatric Index of Comorbidity Geriatric Depression Scale The following neuropsychological tests will be performed on the same day within 7 days of surgery (baseline): Trail Making Test B-A Digit Span Digit Symbol Substitution Test The three cognitive function assessments will be repeated at the following postoperative time points and the change from the preoperative baseline to each time will be evaluated: Day 2 (time point 1) Day 4 (time point 2) Between days 85 and 90 (time point 3) If the patient seems confused before the postoperative administration of these tests, the Neecham Confusion Scale will be used to evaluate the patient for the presence of postoperative delirium; if delirium is not detected, the cognitive function tests will be administered.

Ketamine Prevent POCD

Necrosis of Femoral HeadKnee Osteoarthritis

Previous study demonstrated that neuroinflammation induced by surgery is the main cause of the postoperative cognitive dysfunction. As an agonist of NMDA receptor, ketamine is proved to be an anti-inflammation agent. In present study investigators hypothesized that low dose ketamine would prevent the cognition decline after orthopedic surgery in aged patients.

Does APOE-e4 Predict Delirium and Cognitive Dysfunction After Surgery?

DeliriumPostoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Patients with the APOE-ε4 genotype are at increased risk of both vascular dementia and peripheral vascular disease. Patients undergoing major vascular surgery are at particularly high risk of delirium and other, more subtle, changes in cognitive function following surgery. The hypothesis of this trial is that the APOE-ε4 genotype is associated with both delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD).

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction in Heart Surgery

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

To determine the rate of Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (POCD) in the early and late postoperative periods by comparing the preop and postop period mini mental status tests in participants undergoing open heart surgery, and to compare the results of the investgators clinic with the world literature.

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction After Total Knee or Hip Replacement Surgery in Fast-track Set-up...

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

The aim of this study is to quantify the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in the elderly patient (>60y) after total hip or knee replacement surgery. The hypothesis is that the fast-track methodology with a mean hospital stay less than 3 days will help to minimize this reduction in memory and concentration.
