Abstract Introduction Delirium is a common, distressing, and dangerous complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with few modifiable risk factors. This study aims to determine the association between..

Abstract Background: Postoperative delirium is a common and serious complication in surgical patients, often leading to prolonged hospitalisation and increased morbidity. Intranasal insulin has shown promising results in preventing postoperative..

Abstract Objectives: Oxidative stress after cardiac surgery may disrupt the blood–brain barrier and contribute to postoperative delirium (POD). Although associations between oxidative stress and POD are recognized, whether vitamin C (VC)..

Abstract Background Delirium is an aetiologically nonspecific cerebral syndrome characterised by disturbances in consciousness, attention, perception, cognition, memory, psychomotor activity, emotion, and the sleep–wake cycle. It frequently occurs after cardiac..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background: Delirium after cardiac surgery is associated with poor outcomes. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) increases blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and neuroinflammation, contributing to delirium. While microglial activation after CPB has..

Abstract Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is known to involve systemic inflammatory responses, but the characteristics of the immune cell types involved in these responses are unclear.  Methods: In this prospective study, we..

Abstract Purpose To assess the effects of conventional ultrafiltration and conventional plus zero-balanced ultrafiltration on delirium and cognition in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods A total..

Abstract Introduction Postoperative delirium (POD) is a frequent and serious complication after cardiac surgery. The glucose-to-albumin ratio (GAR) integrates metabolic and nutritional status, but its predictive value for POD in..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during cardiac surgery disrupts cerebral hemodynamics, potentially leading to postoperative neurological complications such as delirium. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) offers non-invasive monitoring of cerebral blood flow..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Introduction Postoperative delirium affects up to 60% of cardiac surgical patients. No reliable gold standard method exists for preventing delirium after cardiac surgery. An example of patient-personal monitoring is..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Delirium is a common postoperative complication in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with prolonged hospitalization and persistent cognitive impairment. This study aimed to assess the predictive..

Abstract Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is a neurocognitive syndrome affecting patients undergoing surgery. It is a frequent complication of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and is associated with higher morbidity,..

Abstract Objectives: This study aimed to measure the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) after aortic arch surgery with hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA), compare it to cardiac surgeries not requiring HCA, and..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Delirium is a common neurological complication after cardiac surgery. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the association between hemodynamic fluctuations during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and..

Abstract Background Postoperative delirium (POD) remains a significant complication following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery, particularly in middle-aged patients who constitute the majority of this surgical population. While intranasal insulin (INI)..

Abstract Purpose Sparse data exist on delirium in VA-ECMO. We aim to describe the characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes of delirium in VA-ECMO. Methods We retrospectively reviewed adults’s electronic medical..

Abstract Background: Ascorbic acid is a strong antioxidant that prevents postoperative delirium by inhibiting reactive oxygen species production. This pilot study was designed to investigate the prevalence of postoperative delirium among..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objective To establish a nomogram for predicting the occurrence of postoperative delirium (POD) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Materials and methods Data from 5379 patients were retrieved from the..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Purpose Postoperative Delirium (POD) has an incidence of up to 65% in older patients undergoing cardiac surgery. We aimed to develop two dynamic nomograms to predict the risk of..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background:  Postoperative delirium (POD) is a severe complication following cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The impact of intra- and early postoperative factors on the..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Postoperative delirium (POD) is a cognitive decline and attention deficit that can occur in patients after cardiac surgery. Despite extensive research identifying the risk factors, POD often remains..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Study objective To evaluate the associations between high and low intraoperative time-weighted average mean arterial pressures before, during and after cardiopulmonary bypass on postoperative delirium. Design Single center retrospective..

Abstract Background Although serum bicarbonate is a reliable predictor of various disease complications, its relationship with postoperative delirium (POD) remains unclear. Our research aimed to assess the effect of baseline..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Objective Postoperative delirium (POD), especially after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), is a relatively common and severe complication increasing side effects, length of hospital stay, mortality and healthcare resource..

Abstract IMPORTANCE  Postoperative delirium is a common and impactful neuropsychiatric complication in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Cognitive training may enhance cognitive reserve, thereby reducing postoperative delirium. OBJECTIVE  To determine..
