Interventions for Postoperative Delirium: Biomarker-2 (IPOD-B2)

The IPOD-B2 Study aims to understand the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium in patients undergoing major surgery. The investigators will identify then correlate soluble biomarkers in blood and cerebral spinal fluid with changes in High Density-Electroencephalogram.

Treatment and study plan

High Density-Electroencephalogram

Procedure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline and correlation between biomarker levels in CSF and HD-EEG changes

    Time frame: Pre-operative measure: Up to 4 weeks prior to surgery. Post-operative measure: Up to postoperative day (POD) 9

Secondary outcomes

  1. Absolute changes in biomarkers in CSF and plasma in delirious and non-delirious patients between baseline and post-operative period

    Time frame: Pre-operative measure: Up to 4 weeks prior to surgery. Post-operative measure: Up to postoperative day (POD) 9

  2. Correlation between biomarkers in CSF and plasma in delirious and non-delirious patients

    Time frame: Post-operative measure: Up to postoperative day (POD) 9

  3. Absolute changes in activity and connectivity in HD-EEG from baseline to postoperative

    Time frame: Pre-operative measure: Up to 4 weeks prior to surgery. Post-operative measure: Up to postoperative day (POD) 9

  4. Correlation of biomarkers with the incidence of spinal cord ischemia

    Time frame: Pre-operative measure: Up to 4 weeks prior to surgery. Post-operative measure: Up to postoperative day (POD) 9
