Brief Summary

Postoperative delirium (POD) remains one of the most common neuropsychiatric complications after deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. The fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) has been shown to significantly correlate with prognosis of many diseases associated with inflammation, but the relationship between FAR and POD is unclear. The investigators aimed to investigate the association between POD and FAR in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients receiving DBS surgery. For this aim, the present study was conducted to provide a new method for the early recognition and perioperative management of delirium after DBS surgery in PD patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • CAM score

    Positive CAM score means that patient developed delirium after surgery. While negative CAM score means that patient did not suffer from delirium after surgery.

    Before surgery

  • CAM score

    Positive CAM score means that patient developed delirium after surgery. While negative CAM score means that patient did not suffer from delirium after surgery.

    Postoperative day 1

  • CAM score

    Positive CAM score means that patient developed delirium after surgery. While negative CAM score means that patient did not suffer from delirium after surgery.

    Postoperative day 2

  • CAM score

    Positive CAM score means that patient developed delirium after surgery. While negative CAM score means that patient did not suffer from delirium after surgery.

    Postoperative day 3

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) score

    Before surgery

  • MMSE score

    Postoperative 24 hour

  • MMSE score

    postoperative 72 hour

  • The level of fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) in peripheral blood.

    Before surgery

Study Arms (2)

POD group

Patients who were determined to have incident postoperative delirium by a positive confusion assessment method (CAM) questionnaire after operation were defined as the POD group.

Non-POD group

Patients who did not suffer from delirium after surgery consisted of the Non-POD group.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with Parkinson's disease were scheduled to undergo elective subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation surgery for the first time under total intravenous anesthesia. Delirium was evaluated at the preoperative visit, then twice daily for 3 days following surgery. Cognition assessment was conducted at preoperative visit, 24 h after surgery and 72 h after surgery. Delirium assessments were performed before 10 AM and after 5 PM in the ward. The CAM questionnaire and cognition assessment method for MMSE were performed by the qualified doctor who trained with CAM and MMSE training manual.

You may qualify if:

  • Over 55 years old
  • American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-III
  • Bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation surgery

You may not qualify if:

  • Preoperative delirium
  • Missing preoperative laboratory parameters on fibrinogen or albumin
  • Persistent infectious diseases
  • Coagulopathy and autoimmune-illness or malignancies
