Today, we will closely examine a phenomenon that’s growing in frequency and importance and getting more and more attention in the anesthesia community: postoperative delirium. As our population ages and more and more elderly people are having surgery for more and more procedures, are concerned about postop with delirium and its complications and long-term implications have become more and more critical. So, hang onto your scrub caps, ladies and gentlemen, as we explore postoperative delirium, its antecedents, consequences, and how to reduce its incidence.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
- What delirium looks like and what you can anticipate from patients who are experiencing it.
- The characteristics of patients that increase their risk of experiencing delirium.
- Some of the precipitating factors that happen around the operating room.
- The debate over the impact of depth of anesthesia and the duration of surgery on delirium risk.
- Good habits that can reduce the risk of delirium.
