Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • incidence of postoperative delirium

    Confusion assessment methods(CAM) will be used to assess postoperative delirium at least two times a day during the hospitalization period. Patients diagnosed with delirium using the CAM were evaluated for the duration, symptoms, and type of delirium (e.g., reduced awareness of the environment; poor cognitive skills; behavioral changes, including hallucinations, restlessness, calling out, slowed movement, or lethargy; and emotional disturbances, such as anxiety, irritability, euphoria, apathy, unpredictable mood shift, and personality changes).

    from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA),

    from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7

  • duration of delirium

    from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7

  • type of delirium

    from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7

  • total score of QOR-40

    from postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7

Study Arms (2)

control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The entire process is carried out according to Severance Hospital surgical protocols. The patients of control group will receive education from the research team about the importance of nutrition and exercise before and after surgery.

Procedure: control group

intervention group

EXPERIMENTAL

For the intervention group, the entire process is carried out according to the Severance Hospital surgical protocol, and the research team provides education before surgery on the importance of nutrition and exercise before and after surgery. In addition, the cognitive training program developed by Rowan is taught with the goal of performing it for at least 10 hours before the surgery, it is conducted the training program after the surgery.
