Identification of the Sleep Architecture in Patients With Hip Surgery (TepSo)

Conditions
Sleep Architecture
Registration Number
NCT02302560
Lead Sponsor
Charite University, Berlin, Germany
Brief Summary

The purpose of this prospective observational study is to investigate the changes in sleep architecture after a hip surgery and its potential association with postoperative delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunctions respectively.

Detailed Description

Sleep research has confirmed the association of sleep (REM sleep and slow-wave sleep) with memory and cognitive function in general. There are changes in the quantity of REM sleep after certain forms of anesthesia, especially with barbiturate, as shown in mouse model. This study is designed to be the first explorative clinical studyl to measure changes in sleep architecture in surgical patients undergoing different types of anesthesia (general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia) and its potential associations with the development of postoperative delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Additionally, parameters will be collected, that from recent research are suspected to be reliable markers for systemic inflammation that might account for delirium and cognitive dysfunction after surgical interventions.

Patients were stratified into two groups: age (≤ 65 years; \> 65 years) and benzodiazepine premedication (yes/no).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in prevalence of rapid eye movement sleepUp to 36 hours

Changes in prevalence of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in the preoperative night compared to the night following the first postoperative day, including potentially compensatory sleep during daytime after surgery.

Sleep architecture will be measured with the Somnoscreen device for mobile polysomnography for a total time duration of 36 h (beginning in the preoperative evening, to be finished the morning of the second postoperative day).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Depth of anesthesiaAt time of surgery

Depth of anesthesia will be measured by processive Electroencephalography and Electromyography (EEG/EMG) -Data (SedLine®)

Hemodynamic parametersAt time of surgery

Hemodynamic variables are assessed by the anesthesia monitor and esophageal Doppler Monitor

Changes in prevalence of slow-wave sleep (Stadium 3 of non rapid eye movement-sleep)Up to 36 hours

Changes in prevalence of slow-wave sleep in the preoperative night compared to the night following the first postoperative day, including potentially compensatory sleep during daytime after surgery.

Sleep architecture will be measured with the Somnoscreen device for mobile polysomnography for a total time duration of 36 h (beginning in the preoperative evening, to be finished the morning of the second postoperative day).

Postoperative complicationsParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days

Including Severity of Delirium

Opioid requirementsParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days

Postoperative pain will be measured by Numeric Rating Scale - Visualized (NRS-V), the Faces Pain Scale - Revised (FPS-R), the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) or the Behavioral Pain Scale for Non-Intubated (BPS-NI)

Inflammation parametersParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days

Assessment of inflammation parameters by means of extended differential blood count (Sysmex) ; the requested blood samples will be collected on the preoperative day, on the day of the intervention, on the following day and on the last day of the hospitalisation

Insomnia Severity IndexUp to 90 days after the operation

The ISI will be assessed by self-assessment questionnaire

Epsworth Sleepiness ScaleUp to 90 days after the operation

The ESS will be assessed by self-assessment questionnaire

Postoperative Cognitive DysfunctionUp to 90 days after the operation

Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction will be measured at hospital discharge and at the 90th postoperative day.

Transfusion requirementsParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days
Catecholamine administration intra- und postoperativeParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days
MalnutritionUp to 90 days after the operation

Malnutrition Screening Tools

Length of hospital stayParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days
PainParticipants will be followed up for hospital stay an expected average of 7 days

Postoperative pain will be measured by Numeric Rating Scale - Visualized (NRS-V), the Faces Pain Scale - Revised (FPS-R), the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) or the Behavioral Pain Scale for Non-Intubated (BPS-NI)

N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor autologous antibodiesUp to 90 days after the operation

Identification of NMDA-receptor autologous antibodies in blood serum and cerebrospinal fluid; the requested blood samples will be collected on the operation day, on the last day of hospitalisation and after 90 days. The requested liquor samples will be collected on the operation day (only in patients with spinal anesthesia).

Changes in prevalence of rapid eye movement sleepUp to 24 hours

REM-Sleep at operation day/night in comparison to preoperative night. Sleep architecture will be measured with the Somnoscreen device for mobile polysomnography for a total time duration of 24 h.

Severity of postoperative DeliriumUp to 36 hours

Delirium screening will be conducted preoperatively, one hour postoperative, the evening of operation day, and the following morning with the scoring devices of confusion assessment method (CAM), by confusion assessment method in the intensive care unit (CAM-ICU) or by Nursing Delirium Screening Scale (Nu-DESC)
