Brief Summary

Postoperative cognitive changes are more common in elderly patients, which can result in poor quality of life, loss of workforce, disability, early retirement, physical-social dependence, increased health care cost and premature mortality. Postoperative cognitive complications are also quite common in extensive oncological surgeries. In this study, our aim is to evaluate the relationship between the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in geriatric urologic oncology patients with brain injury and inflammatory markers \[S100 β, neuron specific enolase (NSE), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB-1 protein)\].

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Addenbrooke cognitive examination at the day before surgery.

    Test score is between 0-100. 100 is the best point and 0 is the worst point in the test. The test has five cognitive domains including attention, memory, language, visuospatial function, and verbal fluency. Patients who score less than 88 in preoperative tests will be diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment.

    The day before surgery.

  • Addenbrooke cognitive examination at seventh day after surgery.

    POCD is diagnosed by 1 standard deviation decrease from the preoperative test scores.

    The seventh day after surgery.

  • Addenbrooke cognitive examination at third months after surgery.

    POCD is diagnosed by 1 standard deviation decrease from the preoperative test scores.

    The third months after surgery.

  • S 100β (pg/mL)

    Blood S 100β concentration is determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.

    Change from baseline serum concentration of S 100 β at 6 hours

  • High Mobility Group Box1 Protein (HMGB1) (ng/mL)

    HMGB1 concentration is determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.

    Change from baseline serum concentration of HMGB1 at 6 hours

  • Human Neuron Specific Enolase (h-NSE) (ng/mL)

    h-NSE concentration is determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.

    Change from baseline serum concentration of h-NSE at 6 hours

  • Interleukine-6 (IL-6) (pg/mL)

    Blood IL-6 concentration is determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.

    Change from baseline serum concentration of IL-6 at 6 hours

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative delirium

    Up to postoperative day one

  • Cerebral oxygenation

    During surgery

  • Overall postoperative complications

    Up to postoperative three months.

Study Arms (1)

Urologic oncology surgery in elderly

Elective urologic oncology surgeries such as radical nephrectomy, radical cystectomy, radical prostatectomy in older than 65 years

Device: Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)Diagnostic Test: Blood sampleDiagnostic Test: Addenbrooke Cognitive Examination III (ACE-III)Diagnostic Test: Confusion Assessment Method

Interventions

Patients are monitored by near infrared spectroscopy before anesthesia induction until end of the operation. Graphical presentation of cerebral oxygenation during surgery evaluated by INVOS Analytics Tool Version 1.2.

Urologic oncology surgery in elderly
Blood sampleDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Blood samples are obtained before and after surgery. S-100, Neuron specific enolase (NSE), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), High Mobility Group Box Protein (HMGB-1) are going to be studied by ELISA method after data collection process end.

Urologic oncology surgery in elderly

ACE-III is administered to study participants one day before surgery, 1 week after surgery, and three months after surgery to diagnose postoperative cognitive dysfunction.

Urologic oncology surgery in elderly

Confusion Assessment Method is administered to study participants in postoperative recovery room to diagnose postoperative delirium.
