Bilateral Bispectral Index, Asymmetries and Post-operative Delirium

Bilateral Bispectral Index and Asymmetries in High Risk Patients for Posteoperative Delirium: An Observational, Prospective, Exploratory Study

Sponsor

IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna

Enrollment

84 participants

Start Date

Jul 7, 2020

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Postoperative Delirium Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Summary

The primary objective of the study is to describe the value of interhemispheric asymmetry (ASYM), during the different intra- and peri-operative phases, in those patients who develop or do not develop post-operative delirium (POD) during the first 30 post-operative days and postoperative cognitive disfunction (POCD) in the first 90 post-operative days, in a population undergoing head\&neck and plastic surgery with a priori increased probability of POD.

Eligibility

Interventions

DEVICEBilateral Bispetral Index Monitor will be applied on forehead of our patients, before surgery begins

In patients undergoing surgery and general anesthesia, the investigators want to examine -using bilateral BIS monitor- synthetic electroencephalographic differences between the two cerebral hemispheres (ASYM) to evaluate any correlation with the development of POD and POCD in the post-operative period.
