EEG-Guided Analgesic Titration During General Anesthesia to Improve Early Neurocognitive Recovery in Older Patients

Sponsor: Columbia University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The investigators intend to recruit 600 participants to see if alpha power during anesthesia is influenced by analgesic medication and associated with a reduction of delirium following surgery.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Alpha Optimization

Intraoperative oscillatory EEG alpha optimization involves real-time acquisition of oscillatory alpha power from the frontal EEG with individualized titration of sevoflurane and opioid.

BEHAVIORAL
