1 Cerebral side effects of general anesthesia Postoperative cognitive dysfunction and delirium Underlying mechanisms and preventive measures Gerhard Schneider Department of Anaesthesiology Witten/Herdecke University HELIOS Clinic Wuppertal

2 I was lying on my back. I could not move nor speak. It seemed I was in a highly advanced civilized culture and - for some purpose - robots were taking care of me. (a physician's experience in the ICU) Anonymous: Anaesthesist 2003; 52:815-7

3 Postoperative Cognitive Decline Postoperative delirium: POD Postoperative cognitive dysfunction: POCD

4 Overlap POD POCD Impairment of cognitive and executive function h POD POCD

5 Neuropsychology cognitive function: e.g. memory, attention (orientation, verbal communication, visual perception, spatial perception, constructive capabilities, arithmetics, praxia) executive function: e.g. impulse, impulse control, planning, thinking personality, mood, affect, social behaviour

6 Definition POCD Impairment of cognition and memory No ICD-10 diagnosis Diagnosis on basis of psychometric (non-pocd validated) Tests

7 POCD early onset: 1 week postop intermediate onset: 3 months postop longterm onset: 1-2 years postop

8 Diagnosis: Roach-Criteria Type I: focal symptoms stupor, coma at discharge Type II: decline in cognitive function memory impairment seizures

9 Assessment: Neuropsychologic Tests Mini Mental State Exam Delirium Rating Scale / Confusion Assessment Method Visual Verbal Learning Test (word learning / recall) Trail Making Test / Concept Shifting Test (cognitive flexibility) Stroop Colour Word Interference Test (distractibility) Paper And Pencil Memory Scanning Test Letter-digit coding / Wechsler adult intelligence scale (working memory) Four boxes test Moller JT et al.

14 Long-term postoperative cognitive dysfunction in the elderly: ISPOCD patients 60 years and older major non-cardiac surgery NIBP, SpO 2 (+3 d) Follow Up: 1 week, 3 months neuropsychological tests Moller JT et al.: Lancet 1998; 351:

15 Long-term postoperative cognitive dysfunction in the elderly: ISPOCD1 25 % POCD 1 week postop 10 % POCD 3 months postop risk factors early onset: age duration of surgery level of education revision, infection, respiratory complications risk factors late onset: age no risk factors: hypoxaemia, hypotension Moller JT et al.: Lancet 1998; 351:

16 Postoperative cognitive dysfunction in middleaged patients (ISPOCD2) 580 patients y major non-caridac surgery compared to age-matched control follow up: 1 week, 3 months neuropsychologic tests cognitive function, depression, daily life activity Johnson T et al.: Anesthesiology 2002; 96:
