Trial summary

Sleep and rest are key elements in postoperative rehabilitation and recovery. There are complex relations between major surgery, sleep disturbance and complications. Major surgery leeds to severe postoperative sleep disturbances, initially reducing REM sleep time and disturbing the remaining sleep stages. Read more about this study

About this study

Sleep and rest are key elements in postoperative rehabilitation and recovery. There are complex relations between major surgery, sleep disturbance and complications. Major surgery leeds to severe postoperative sleep disturbances, initially reducing REM sleep time and disturbing the remaining sleep stages. Major surgery is again a risk factor for postoperative delirium and other cognitive impairment. The underlying mechanisms includes pain, opioid medication, sleep disturbances and neuroinflammation, along with external factors as noise during hospitalisation. The physiologic stress from sleep disturbances and sleep deprivation is associated with blood-brain barrier impairment, inflammation, decreased restitution, altered nociceptive function. Likewise, undiagnosed and untreated sleep apnea is a risk for postoperative complications and is itself affected by anesthesia and some analgesics (i.a. opioids).

Fast-track surgery development has led to restitution period shortening, optimized pain management reducing opioid use, postoperative inflammatory stress response reduction and less delirium. Evolution of hip and knee arthroplasty(THA/TKA), organisation, optimized pain management and pharmacologic modification of inflammatory response by high dose steroid has permitted to perform these surgeries in an outpatient setting.

Previous studies of fast-track THA/TKA using multimodal opioid-sparring analgesia, however neither using high dose steroids nor in an out patient setting, have demonstrated REM sleep period reduction from a normal range of 18% preoperatively to 1% postoperatively. However, changes in sleep architecture after THA/TKA in at setting attempting to minimise abnormal sleep by means of ambulatory surgery added to perioperative reduction of inflammatory response to surgery, pain and opioid use by high dose steroid, haven't been studied.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how much an optimized ambulatory THA/TKA , reducing pain and inflammatory response to surgery and opioid use by high doses steroid can conserve the preoperative sleep architecture.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in postoperative REM sleep time compared to preoperative

    Polysomnography

    Measured: One night 2 to 4 night preoperatively, and the first and second postoperative night.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Changes Remaining sleep stages and sleep variables (i.a. apnea)

    Polysomnography

    Measured: One night 2 to 4 night preoperatively, and the first and second postoperative night.

  2. Presence and severity of postoperative delirium compared to preoperative

    Confusion Assessement Method-Severity (CAM-S). High scores, better outcome.

    Measured: One night 2 to 4 night preoperatively, and after the second postoperative night.

  3. Presence and severity of postoperative cognitive impairment compared to preoperative

    Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), High scores, better outcome.

    Measured: One night 2 to 4 night preoperatively, and after the second postoperative night.
