Study groupRoleWhat they receive
study group300 male and female patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery are enrolled at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University [Jiangsu China]. Patients will be divided into POCD and non-POCD groups according to the scores of neuropsychological tests.
control group30 healthy volunteers are enrolled for calculating the Z-scores of study group.

What is being measured

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

  1. the neuropsychological test battery to measure cognitive function

    Measured: 1 day before surgery(baseline)

  2. olfaction test to measure the sense of smell

    Measured: 1 day before surgery(baseline)

  3. the neuropsychological tests to measure cognitive function

    Measured: within 5 to 10 days (average of 7 days) after surgery

  4. olfaction test to measure the sense of smell

    Measured: within 5 to 10 days (average of 7 days) after surgery
