NCT04907565

Brief Summary

This research aims at describing the relationship between white adipose tissue inflammation and post-operative cognitive dysfunctions.The possible link between inflammatory cytokines secretions of the white adipose tissue of a surgical wound and the arising of patient's cognitive dysfunction in the post-operative course will be investigated. The hypothesis is that obese patient's inflammation of the white adipose tissue leads to cognitive dysfunction.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Arising of POCD measured by a composite criterion

    2 points Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score decrease compared to the pre-operative score, and/or appearance of a delirium tracked down every day by the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) during the hospital course.

    day 5 after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Variation of inflammatory cytokine levels from patient's plasma and patient's white adipose tissue (extract from a controlled medium).

    Day 0 and day 5 after surgery

  • Identification of a linked between inflammatory cytokine levels and the appearance of POCD.

    day 5 after surgery

  • Peri-operative variations of the protein S100B, an autonomy scale (IADL) and a quality of life scale (EQ5D).

    day 5 after surgery
