Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of emergence delirium

    Screening of the patients regarding an emergence delirium by The Confusion Assessment Method for The Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU). CAM-ICU is assessed at three different points of time: 1. 15min after excubation 2. 30min after excubation 3. At discharge from post-anesthesia care unit (PACU)

    Until the end of post-anesthesia care unit stay, assessed up to 1 hour

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Incidence of postoperative delirium

    Within 3 days after surgery

  • Incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting

    Within 3 days after surgery

  • Postoperative Pain

    Within 3 days after surgery

  • Length of Hospital stay

    From the date of admission until discharged from hospital, up to 30 days

  • Adverse events

    Within 3 days after surgery

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients allocated to this arm will receive an identical volume of saline solution before anesthesia induction.

Drug: Placebos

Interventions

Investigators administrated intravenously Tropisetron 5mg before anesthesia induction

Tropisetron

Investigators administrated intravenously 0.9% saline solution as a placebo
