About this study

Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common surgical complication. The incidence is 10% to 22% in neurological procedures, and advanced age is a risk factor for neurological procedures. Many studies have shown that dexmedetomidine(DEX) may reduce the incidence of delirium in non-cardiac surgery patients and elderly patients. However, there are few studies focus on the effect of DEX on POD in elderly patients undergoing neurosurgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of DEX on POD in in elderly patients undergoing craniotomy.
