Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of Delirium (CAM-ICU / CAM for HDU) Timepoint: Outcome assessments will be conducted at baseline (preoperative evaluation) and postoperatively on POD 0, POD 1, POD 2, POD 3, POD 4, POD 5, POD 6, and POD 7, or from POD 0 until discharge, whichever occurs earlier.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Delirium Severity: Measured using the Delirium Rating Scale Revised 98 (DRS R 98) by a psychiatrist for both groups only if CAM ICU score is positive (3 or more). Severity will be documented as mild, moderate, or severe.Timepoint: Outcome will be assessed Postoperatively at 12h, 24h, 36h, 48h, 60h, 72h, 84h, 96h, 108h, 120h, 132h, 144h, 156h, & 168h, or until discharge (whichever occurs earlier);Onset & Duration of delirium,First day of CAM positivity & total number of days positive will be documented.Timepoint: Assessed postoperatively at 12h intervals (12h, 24h, 36h … up to 168h), or until discharge (whichever occurs earlier).;Feasibility & Compliance: Percentage of patients receiving full intervention,The percentage of patients receiving the full intervention will be recorded.Timepoint: At the end of the study period (approximately 6 months).;Hospital Length of StayTimepoint: At discharge;Risk Factor Identification: Patient age, comorbidities, surgery durationTimepoint: At the end of the study, likely at the end of the sixth month.
