About this study

Official title: Preoperative Chronic Pain Increases the Risk of Early Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction in Elderly Patients Undergoing Hip Joint Replacement Surgery: a Prospective Observational Cohort Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether preoperative pain is the risk factor of POCD in elder patients.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) occurs mainly in aged patients. The mechanism of POCD is not clear yet and no effective therapy method. In the present study, we conducted a single-center observational prospective cohort trial in elder patients who undergoing hip joint replacement surgery with general anesthesia to test our hypothesis that preoperative chronic pain is one of the risk factors of POCD after major joint replacement surgery.
