Analyzing serum indexes in elderly spinal surgery patients with postoperative delirium

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to investigate the differences in serum indexes between elderly patients who experience postoperative delirium (POD) after spinal surgery and those who do not develop long-term postoperative neurocognitive disorders (pNCD). Participants aged 65 and older will undergo cognitive assessments before surgery and delirium evaluations within a week post-surgery. The study will compare serum index levels before and after surgery to explore correlations between POD and pNCD. The research is conducted at Xuanwu Hospital under routine anesthetic management.
