Overview
Brief Summary
Emergence Delirium (ED) is a common postoperative complication refers to an acute brain dysfunction that occurs during the recovery from general anesthesia, which is mainly characterized by sudden attention and consciousness disorders. The occurrence of ED increases the risk of self-injury, wound dehiscence, accidental catheter dislocation, and postoperative delirium, and is also associated with postoperative cognitive deterioration and increased utilization of medical resources after discharge.
Detailed Description
The incidence of hip fracture after surgery in patients over 55 years old is about 45%, and ED is highly predictive of delirium during postoperative hospitalization, which occurs in about 1/3 of ED patients during postoperative hospitalization. It has been suggested that if delirium is monitored only on the first postoperative day and not at the PACU stage, up to 53% of delirium cases may be missed. Studies have shown that perioperative application of dexmedetomidine can reduce the risk of postoperative delirium to a certain extent. However, intravenous dexmedetomidine usually leads to problems with delayed extubation, residual sedation, and prolonged PACU stay. Previous studies have shown that intranasal dexmedetomidine improves perioperative sleep quality and neurocognitive deficits in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. Compared with intravenous administration, intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine resulted in milder hemodynamic fluctuations. However, stable nasal spray bioavailability is superior to intravenous dosage forms for nasal use. Based on the above background, this study aims to investigate the effect of nasal spray of dexmedetomidine on the prevention of emergence delirium after total hip replacement in elderly patients.

Arms & Interventions
Dex group
at least 20 min before the introduction of anesthesia, the patient takes the sitting position, the head is slightly tilted forward, and the product is kept upright. Insert the nostril at the same Angle as the nasal cavity. Press down on the spray pump evenly with the index and middle fingers at the same time, and press the pump to the bottom at one time for 1 spray (25ug). After 1 spray on both nostrils, tilt your head back slightly and inhale gently. After staying for about 30 s, 1 spray was applied to each nostril on both sides for a total of 4 sprays (100ug).
Intervention: Nasal spray dexmedetomidine
Saline group
Normal saline packaged in the same appearance was used
Intervention: Nasal spray dexmedetomidine
