The Association Between Variation in Oxygen Saturation (ScO2) and Incidence of Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (POCD) in a Population of Elderly Patients Admitted for Emergency Surgery.

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Cerebral Saturation; Cognitive Impairment; Emergencies
• Interventions: Other: To evaluate the relationship between oxygen saturation and the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in emergency surgery in elderly patients

• Registration Number: NCT03107260
• Lead Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Brief Summary

There is no study of the association between ScO2 and POCD in non-cardiac, thoracic or vascular surgery. The few studies found in cardiac, thoracic and vascular surgery show an incidence up to 50% with a variation of the ScO2 threshold which varies between 15 and 25% according to the studies.

Age is the main risk of OCDD. The management of this pathology should be early to avoid loss of autonomy of the patient. Finding a relationship, if it exists, would therefore significantly improve the mortality and morbidity of the said patient.
