About this study

Official title: Modified Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan Hydrogel Patch in Preventing Postoperative Delirium in Elderly Patients: A Muticenter Randomised Control Trial

The purpose of this study is to determine whether preoperative administration of Modified Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan Hydrogel Patch prevents the incidence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing major surgery.

Read the detailed description

The Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan (TWBXD, Cheonwangbosimdan), first recorded in Effective Formulae Handed Down for Generations ( Shi Yi De Xiao Fang) in 1337, is a herbal medicine that has been continuously utilized in Chinese medicine. It alleviates insomnia, anxiety, and palpitation by furnishing energy and stabilizing patients' mind. Cheonwangbosimdan can mitigate primary insomnia and secondary insomnia in patients with hyperthyroidism and menopause without severe side effects.

Tianwang Buxin Decoction has the same effect as Olanzapine for the treatment of delirium after hip joint replacement in falling-induced senile femoral neck fracture patients.

This study aim to evaluate the incidence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients treated with prophylactic Modified Cheonwangbosimdan Hydrogel Patch versus placebo patch.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of inpatient post-operative delirium as measured using the 3D-confusion assessment method (3D-CAM)

    Occurrence of delirium on any postoperative day, as assessed using the 3D-CAM or CAM-ICU daily

    Measured: Day 1 postoperatively

  2. Incidence of inpatient post-operative delirium as measured using the 3D-confusion assessment method (3D-CAM)

    Occurrence of delirium on any postoperative day, as assessed using the 3D-CAM or CAM-ICU daily

    Measured: Day 2 postoperatively

  3. Incidence of inpatient post-operative delirium as measured using the 3D-confusion assessment method (3D-CAM)

    Occurrence of delirium on any postoperative day, as assessed using the 3D-CAM or CAM-ICU daily

    Measured: Day 3 postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Sleep Quality

    Objective sleep quality will be measured using a Fitbit Charge 3 activity monitor to be worn

    Measured: Baseline and 1,3 days after surgery

  2. Athens Insomnia Scale

    using the Athens Insomnia Scale to test the subjective sleep quality of patients. The range were from 0-3. Total score < 4 means sleep well; total score =6 means suspicious of insomnia; total score > 6 means insomnia.

    Measured: Baseline and 1,2,3 days after surgery

  3. Pain at rest using Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)

    NRS pain scores will also be measured at rest. The NRS is a validated 11-point numerical scale that ranges from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).

    Measured: postoperative days 1, 2, 3

  4. Total postoperative analgesic requirements

    Amount of opioid (IV morphine or hydromorphone) and oral analgesics required for pain control, reported as overall morphine equivalents.

    Measured: First 48 hours postoperatively

  5. Change in biological markers (1)

    Plasma levels of CXCL13

    Measured: Baseline and 1 day after surgery

  6. Change in biological markers (2)

    Plasma levels of S100B

    Measured: Baseline and 1 day after surgery

  7. STOP-Bang score

    STOP-BANG questionnaire

    Measured: Baseline

  8. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index

    The PSQI is filled out by the patient and assesses patient sleep quality.

    Measured: Baseline and day 3 postoperatively

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of inpatient post-operative delirium as measured using the 3D-confusion assessment method (3D-CAM) (time frame: Day 1 postoperatively). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?
