Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction: Preclinical Highlights and Perspectives on Preventive Strategies
One of the common complications associated with anaesthesia and surgery in geriatric patients is the postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). This cognitive impairment affects the long-term prognosis and has been shown to be associated with long-term disability, higher health care costs, and even increased mortality.

متن کاملPostoperative Cognitive Dysfunction: Current Developments in Mechanism and Prevention
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a subtle disorder of thought processes, which may influence isolated domains of cognition and has a significant impact on patient health. The reported incidence of POCD varies enormously due to lack of formal criteria for the assessment and diagnosis of POCD. The significant risk factors of developing POCD mainly include larger and more invasive ope...
متن کاملPostoperative Cognitive Dysfunction
Cardiac surgery, and especially cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), has been the poster child for postoperative cognitive morbidity. Over the past 10-15 years, however, it has become increasingly clear that disruption or decline in cognitive function is also fairly widespread among elderly non-cardiac surgical patients. The reasons are a matter of considerable controversy and this brief overview will...
