NCT03346226

Brief Summary

the hypothesis is that Dexmedetomidine seems to decrease incidence of post-operative delirium . one possible mechanism is that Dex have a minor influence on cognition, since it has no effect on GABA receptor,another is that Dex could induce a sleep similar to natural sleep, thereby decreasing sleep deprivation and circadian rhythm disorder in post-operative patients. In this study , investigators devise the two different sedatives(Dexmedetomidine and Propofol)'influence on postoperative delirium in hip fracture elderly participants under spinal anesthesia

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • occurrence of postoperative delirium in postoperative 72 hours

    Evaluation of delirium is performed by trained investigational assistant who does not know the randomization of patients. Follow up is carried out before operation and at 9Am and 3Pm during post-operative day 1-3 (POD1-3). During follow up, RASS (Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale, RASS) is used firstly to evaluate sedation of the patients, and for those with ARSS \>-4 (-3~+4), the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) is adopted for evaluation. A case consistent with delirium standard at any time point during follow up is determined to be delirium positive. Diagnosis should be confirmed for a CAM-positive patient by a psychological expert based on DSM-V standard

    patient enrolled will be evaluated at 9Am and 3Pm during post-operative day 1-3 (POD1-3).At any time point above,delirium is detected,then the patient will be diagnosed as postoperative delirium. All patients enrolled is Non-delirium before surgery。

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Consumption of analgesic

    record the data of comsumption of analgeisic at 48 hours after operation

  • Times of intra-operative occurrence of hypotension, bradycardia, hypertension and tachycardia that need treatment.

    during the operation

  • Score of quality of post-operative sleeping

    quality of sleeping will be assessed at 9Am during post-operative day 1-3

  • Hospital stay

    record the days of hospital stay at the 30 days after surgery

  • Post-operative complications besides delirium

    observe and evaluate complications at the 30 days after surgery

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride

EXPERIMENTAL

Dex Group: 0.5 μg/kg of Dex is given 10 minutes before operation through injection pump during 15 minutes. After the operation starts, the initial pumping ratio of Dex is 0.5ug/kg/h and adjusted under BIS surveillance to keep BIS between 70-80 until 30 minutes before the end of surgery. Meanwhile, OAA/S grade is evaluated every 15 minutes to maintain OAA/S at grade 4. If discrepancy occurs, OAA/S prevails.

Drug: Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride

Propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Prop Group: Propofol is given with an initial ratio of 2-10mg/kg/h, when the operation starts. Under BIS surveillance, dripping rate is adjusted to keep BIS between 70-80 until 5 minutes before the end of surgery. Meanwhile, OAA/S grade is evaluated every 15 minutes to maintain OAA/S at grade 4. If discrepancy occurs, OAA/S prevails.

Drug: Propofol

Interventions

Dexmedetomidine is given to patients during spinal anesthesia at the dose of 0.5 μg/kg,adjusted the dose to keep BIS between 70-80 until 30 minutes before the end of surgery

Also known as: brand name :YiSi
Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride

Propofol is given with an initial ratio of 2-10mg/kg/h, when the operation starts,adjust the propofol's dose to keep BIS between 70-80 before the end of surgery

Also known as: Brand name:Diprivan or other brands of propofol
Propofol
