Conditions

Brain Network Connectivity, Postoperative Delirium, Dexmedetomidine, Propofol

Brief summary

Perioperative anesthesia can affect postoperative cognitive function. In our previous study, intraoperative dexmedetomidine (Dex) infusion reduced the incidence of delirium within the first 5 days after brain tumor. However, the mechanism is still unclear. With the development of neuroimaging, multimodal neuroimaging technology provide a new method to explore the underlying mechanism. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the alterations of brain network under sedation and anesthesia by different anesthetics in patients with supratentorial glioma and their association with cognition.

Interventions

DRUGDexmedetomidine

Participants will be sedated and maintained by dexmedetomidine during the surgery.

DRUGPropofol

Participants will be sedated and maintained by propofol during the surgery.

Participants will be sedated and maintained by remimazolam during the surgery.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The alterations of brain network connectivity.Before sedation, 30 minutes after sedation,and 30 minutes after surgery.fMRI and DTI will be used to detect brain network connectivity.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Postoperative delirium.Day 1-5 after surgery.The incidence and severity of postoperative delirium and its association with changes of brain network connectivity.
Electroencephalogram changesFrom patients admission to operation room until 10 minutes after surgeryElectroencephalogram will be used to record the brain activity.
rScO2 changes.From patients admission to operation room until 10 minutes after surgeryRegional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) will be monitored with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).
