NCT02318199

Brief Summary

Emergence agitation is a frequent complication that can have serious consequences during recovery from general anesthesia. However, agitation has been poorly investigated in patients after craniotomy. In this prospective multicenter cohort study, adult patients will be enrolled after craniotomy and emergence agitation will be evaluated. The incidence, risk factors and outcome will be investigated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Emergence agitation

    Emergence agitation is measured by sedation-agitation scale (SAS) and is defined as SAS=5-7.

    12 hours after operation

Study Arms (2)

Agitation group

Patient is evaluated by the sedation-agitation scale (SAS) during the anesthesia recovery after intracranial surgery under general anesthesia. SAS equals to 5-7 during the first 12 hours after surgery.

Procedure: Anesthesia recovery after intracranial surgery

Non-agitation group

Patient is evaluated by the sedation-agitation scale (SAS) during the anesthesia recovery after intracranial surgery under general anesthesia. SAS equals to 1-4 during the first 12 hours after surgery.

Procedure: Anesthesia recovery after intracranial surgery

Interventions

Intracranial surgery for brain tumor, traumatic brain injury, intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage and infection.

Agitation groupNon-agitation group
