Interventions
Mini-mental state exam: For subjects \> 60, this exam will be administered pre-operatively. Spielberger State-Trait anxiety test: Spielberger test just before being taken to the operating room. Spoken word-stem completion test: After discharge from recovery but within 24 hrs. post surgery, this test along with the anxiety test will be administered. Bispectral Index Monitor: The physiologic monitor is used intraoperatively to assess surgical anesthesia. Audio File: Playing an audio file (a list of spoken words) via headphones under general anesthesia during the surgical procedure.
