Trial summary

Despite recent advances in postoperative delirium research, the proportion of patients with postoperative delirium is still high ranging between 20-80%. Although postoperative delirium is a frequent complication and is associated with the need for more inpatient hospital care and longer length of hospital stay, little… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Risk Factors of Recovery Room Delirium After Elective Non-cardiovascular Surgery in Post-anaesthesia Care Unit

Despite recent advances in postoperative delirium research, the proportion of patients with postoperative delirium is still high ranging between 20-80%. Although postoperative delirium is a frequent complication and is associated with the need for more inpatient hospital care and longer length of hospital stay, little is known about risk factors for recovery room delirium (RRD) occurred in postanaesthesia care unit. The aim of the study was to determine pre- and intraoperative risk factors for the development of RRD among patients undergoing non cardiovascular surgery.

Read the detailed description

Recovery room delirium (RRD) defined as delirium occurred in PACU was diagnosed according to CAM-ICU criteria. Pre-, intra-, and postoperative data of patients undergoing elective non cardiovascular surgery were prospectively collected, univariate and multivariate logistic regression were performed to find the risk factors related to postoperative delirium.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The incidence of delirium in post anesthesia care unit (PACU) determined by confusion assessment method (CAM) -ICU criteria

    Measured: at 1 hour after operation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. heart rate in PACU

    heart rate was recorded every 10 min during PACU stay, maximal and minimal heart rate were collected for analysis

    Measured: every 10 mins

  2. Pulse Oximeter Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) in PACU

    Measured: every 10 mins

  3. Hospital-length of stay

    Measured: up to 6 months

  4. Total health care fees

    Measured: up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Delirium, run by Huazhong University of Science and Technology at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of delirium in post anesthesia care unit (PACU) determined by confusion assessment method (CAM) -ICU criteria (time frame: at 1 hour after operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
