NCT07037186

Brief Summary

This observational study aims to learn about the effects of diabetes mellitus in intraoperative electroencephalography (EEG) of elderly patients receiving general anesthesia. The main question it seeks to answer is: Is there a relation between preoperative diabetes, intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression ratio, and postoperative delirium? Participants aged over 65, receiving general anesthesia as part of their anesthesia plan for surgery of any kind, will be monitored with EEG and cerebral oximetry intraoperatively to record burst suppressions and questioned for delirium for 48 hours postoperatively.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Elderly patients receiving general anesthesia

You may qualify if:

  • Patients over the age of 65 undergoing ASA I-IV receiving general anaesthesia
  • All elective surgery patients who are not laparoscopic and last longer than 30 minutes

You may not qualify if:

  • \) American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade V or VI
  • Whether the surgery is cranial or laparoscopic
  • Preoperative neuropsychiatric (dementia, epilepsy, etc.) disease or drug use
  • Previous cranial surgery or known vertebrobasilar insufficiency, carotid stenosis
  • Those with a pain score above 4 in the postoperative evaluation unit (PACU)
  • Patients with a 15% decrease in cerebral oxygenation from onset in oximetry monitoring during follow-up
  • Patients with bleeding greater than 20% of total body volume during follow-up
  • Patients with a decrease of more than 20% from their baseline systolic value (based on follow-up in the service) during follow-up
  • Those with hypercarbia or hypocarbia due to intraoperative ventilation insufficiency
  • Patients whose PSI value is reduced to a depth of 25, which is sufficient for anaesthesia, with anaesthetic drugs administered during anaesthesia induction or maintenance
  • Presence of preoperative cognitive dysfunction
  • Patients requiring postoperative intubation and intensive care follow-up
