Bilateral Bispectral Index, Asymmetries and Post-operative Delirium
Sponsor: IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna
Summary
The primary objective of the study is to describe the value of interhemispheric asymmetry (ASYM), during the different intra- and peri-operative phases, in those patients who develop or do not develop post-operative delirium (POD) during the first 30 post-operative days and postoperative cognitive disfunction (POCD) in the first 90 post-operative days, in a population undergoing head\&neck and plastic surgery with a priori increased probability of POD.

Interventions
Bilateral Bispetral Index Monitor will be applied on forehead of our patients, before surgery begins
In patients undergoing surgery and general anesthesia, the investigators want to examine -using bilateral BIS monitor- synthetic electroencephalographic differences between the two cerebral hemispheres (ASYM) to evaluate any correlation with the development of POD and POCD in the post-operative period.
