About this study

Official title: Incidence and Perioperative Risk Factors for Early Intensive Care Delirium Following Cardiac Surgery

The aim of the study is to identify the incidence of early postoperative delirium in intensive care patients after cardiac surgery and detect possible risk factors associated with increased risk for developing delirium after cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

A consecutive series of patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery is included in the study. Delirium screening is performed using Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist. Preoperative cognitive state is evaluated with Mini-Mental State Examination. Information of possible risk factors is collected from patient's history and chart. The Snoring, Tiredness, Observed apnea, high blood Pressure-Body mass index (BMI), Age, Neck circumference and Gender questionnaire (STOP-BANG questionnaire) is used for obstructive sleep apnea screening.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of early postoperative delirium in intensive care patients after cardiac surgery

    Measured: Within 5 days after the surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Perioperative risk factors for delirium after cardiac surgery

    Preoperative risk factors include demographic data, comorbidities and standard preoperative laboratory and instrumental testing results as well as preoperative cognitive status evaluation, performed a day before the surgery. If the patient does not develop delirium, information on intraoperative and postoperative risk factors is collected up to discharge from intensive care unit or maximum 5 postoperative days, whichever happens earlier. If delirium occurs, data on risk factors is collected up to the beginning of delirium.

    Measured: Up to 5 postoperative days or occurence of delirium if it develops earlier

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Delirium, run by Vilnius University at 1 site in Lithuania.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Lithuania. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Incidence of early postoperative delirium in intensive care patients after cardiac surgery (time frame: Within 5 days after the surgery). 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Nov 2016.
