Conditions
Summary
Delirium is an acute confusional state, it is a sign of acute encephalopathy, also known as acute brain failure, acute brain dysfunction or mental state changes.Postoperative delirium can cause post-traumatic stress disorder, affects patients' quality of life, extend the length of hospital stay, increased hospitalization cost, and is closely relative to short-term and long-term mortality after surgery. Exogenous 40 Hz stimulation can improve cognitive functioning. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exogenous 40Hz stimulation on the incidence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing hip and knee replacement.

Interventions
Exogenous 40HZ stimulation is a physical intervention that can drive oscillations in the gamma range, and the oscillations and pulses caused at the corresponding frequency can lead to a significant reduction in β-amyloid, reverse tau hyperphosphorylation, and thereby improve the cognitive function of patients.
