Brief summary
In this study, the cognitive status of the patients in the preoperative period was taken into consideration and the development of delirium after the surgery was investigated. There is no harm to the patient.
Detailed description
The patients were preoperatively assessed for American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) risk by an anesthetist and age, sex and comorbidities were recorded. The Mini-cog test was applied as a cognitive screening test by the anesthesiologist in the preoperative period and the test score was recorded. Three-word memory test, clock drawing, and visual function test was performed to evaluate the patient's cognitive functions. In this test, patients were asked to memorize three words such as umbrella, sunshine, and chair at the beginning of the test.
Interventions
Depending on the anesthesia maintenance protocol, total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) or sevoflurane anesthesia, patients were divided into group T (TIVA) and group S (sevoflurane).
