NCT03120442

Brief Summary

Postoperative delirium after total knee replacement surgery has been related to significant morbidity and mortality among high risk patients. Anesthetic care might play a role in the development of postoperative delirium. The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of postoperative delirium between different intraoperative sedation regimen. Delirium assessment using standardized screening tools will be done every 8 hours after surgery.
