Preoperative Management and Postoperative Delirium in Older People

Abstract

Inflammation of the central nervous system cause postoperative delirium (POD), it is due to systematic inflammation induced by surgery. This can be known after experiments with animals. Memory impairment and neutralizing antibodies may be caused by the high-morbidity cluster box protein. This may decrease postoperative memory decline in experiments on adult rats. Recently, it is known that POD can increase the incidence of morbidity and mortality in postoperative patients. Prehabilitation is highly recommended for POD. However, the use of VR can be an option for elderly patients, patients with cognitive impairment and stroke. VR is also a hope for the population. This study is also very important to test VR Neuroprehabilitation for the prevention of POD in certain populations.
