What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative delirium during the 3 adys-follow-up after anesthetic resuscitation

    Postoperative delirium was tested with 3D-Confusion Assessment Method or Confusion Assessment Method-intensive care unit (0-4, higher scores means worse). The patient is determined to be postoperative delirium (ie, Confusion Assessment Method positive) if he/she fall ill quickly with confusion disorder, and with mental disorder or consciousness disorder.

    Measured: From ending of the surgery to 3 days after anesthetic resuscitation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Postoperative delirium in the postanesthesia care unit

    Postoperative delirium was tested with Confusion Assessment Method-intensive care unit. Postoperative delirium was tested with Confusion Assessment Method-intensive care unit (0-4, higher scores means worse outcome). The patient is determined to be postoperative delirium (ie, Confusion Assessment Method positive) if he/she fall ill quickly with confusion disorder, and with mental disorder or consciousness disorder.

    Measured: From ending of the surgery to the time when discharge from postanesthesia care unit, an average of 30 minutes.

  2. Postoperative delirium on the first day after operation

    Postoperative delirium was tested with 3D-Confusion Assessment Method (0-4, higher scores means worse outcome). The patient is determined to be postoperative delirium (ie, Confusion Assessment Method positive) if he/she fall ill quickly with confusion disorder, and with mental disorder or consciousness disorder.

    Measured: 9:00-10:00 and 15:00-16:00 on The first day after operation

  3. Postoperative delirium on the second day after operation

    Postoperative delirium was tested with 3D-Confusion Assessment Method (0-4, higher scores means worse outcome). The patient is determined to be postoperative delirium (ie, Confusion Assessment Method positive) if he/she fall ill quickly with confusion disorder, and with mental disorder or consciousness disorder.

    Measured: 9:00-10:00 and 15:00-16:00 on The second day after operation

  4. Postoperative delirium on the third day after operation

    Postoperative delirium was tested with 3D-Confusion Assessment Method (0-4, higher scores means worse outcome). The patient is determined to be postoperative delirium (ie, Confusion Assessment Method positive) if he/she fall ill quickly with confusion disorder, and with mental disorder or consciousness disorder.

    Measured: 9:00-10:00 and 15:00-16:00 on The third day after operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Delirium, run by The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University 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 4 inclusion and 7 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 29 Mar 2023. 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 China. 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?

Postoperative delirium during the 3 adys-follow-up after anesthetic resuscitation (time frame: From ending of the surgery to 3 days after anesthetic resuscitation). 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 29 Mar 2023.
