About this study
Official title: The Reliability and Validity of Perioperative Cognitive Test Network Platform for Monitoring Perioperative Neurocognitive Function Changes in Patients Undergoing Surgery
This study aimed to analyze the reliability and validity of the results of the new designed perioperative cognitive test network platform, and to judge the reliability and scientific nature of the perioperative cognitive test. And then to explore whether the perioperative cognitive test network platform can be used to evaluate the changes of perioperative cognitive function of patients.
Read the detailed description
Two cohorts of elderly healthy volunteers and elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery will be included in this study. The cognitive function of the patients was tested one day before and seven days after operation. Healthy volunteers had two cognitive function tests at the same interval. The normality test is used to evaluate whether the test results accord with the normal distribution. The internal consistency of the test was evaluated by calculating the Cronbach coefficient, the content validity was evaluated by experts and the content validity index was calculated, and the construct validity of the test was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the test was evaluated by calculating the effect scale.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Elderly patients undergoing surgery | Older than or equal to 65 years of age; patients who intend to undergo major abdominal surgery under general anesthesia (grade 3-4 surgery based on surgical grade) | |
| Elderly healthy volunteers | Age-and sex-matched community population |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Reliability
Cronbach's alpha is used to assess the reliability and the internal consistency of this Cognitive test.
Cronbach's alpha value >0.7 indicating the reliability of the test is acceptable.
Measured: Baseline Test:1 day before operation, Second Test: Day 7 after operation
Validity
Content validity, Construct validity and Responsiveness analysis are used to evaluate the validity of the cognitive test.
The item-content validity index (I-cvi) is used evaluate the Content validity. I-cvi≥ 0.78 means the content validity is satisfactory.
The Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) is used evaluate the Construct validity. The Kaiser-Mayer-Olkin (KMO) index (>0.6) is used to evaluate adaptability for factor analysis. Factor loading should >0.4.
The Responsiveness analysis is used to evaluate the ability of this cognitive test that can reflect the change of cognitive function of the Interviewer during operation. Paired t-test can be used to compare whether the difference in score before and after is statistically significant. P value should < 0.05.
Measured: Baseline Test:1 day before operation, Second Test: Day 7 after operation
Secondary outcomes (1)
PND (Perioperative neurocognitive disorders)
PND is diagnosed by calculating the Z-score. The investigators get the score or accuracy and completion time of each test through the cognitive test network platform.
Then Calculate Z-score: For each test, the mean practice effect is subtracted from the difference between preoperative and postoperative test scores; the result is then divided by the control group standard deviation to obtain a z-score. The z-scores of all tests in an individual patient are summarized and divided by the standard deviations for this sum of z-scores in the control subjects, creating a composite z-score.
Cognitive decline is defined when two z-scores in individual tests or the composite z-score ≤-1.96.
Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) mainly refer to neurocognitive decline detected after surgery and anesthesia.
Measured: Baseline Test:1 day before operation, Second Test: Day 7 after operation
