Effects of Intravenous Anesthesia on Postoperative Cognitive Function in Patients Accepted Painless Gastroenteroscopy

Conditions
Postoperative Cognitive Function
Interventions
Behavioral: a series of tests
Registration Number
NCT03909633
Lead Sponsor
Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University
Brief Summary

The investigators want to study the effect of intravenous anesthesia on postoperative cognitive function in patients accepted gastroenteroscopy ,no additional medication or operation is involved

Detailed Description

The investigators want to study the effect of intravenous anesthesia on postoperative cognitive function in patients accepted gastroenteroscopy ,no additional medication or operation is involved.The investigators assess cognitive function through a series of tests for 4 times( within 3 days before the endoscopy ,2 hours after the endoscopy finished,1 week after the endoscopy,3 months after the endoscopy),including WCST、DSST、DST、HADS、MoCA,through self - contrast,the investigators will conclude whether intravenous anesthesia has bad impact on cognitive function or not .

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by DST4 months

DST(Digit Span Test.),It is used to measure working memory's number storage capacity. Participants see or hear a sequence of numerical digits and are tasked to recall the sequence correctly, with increasingly longer sequences being tested in each trial. The participant's span is the longest number of sequential digits that can accurately be remembered. Digit-span tasks can be given forwards or backwards, meaning that once the sequence is presented, the participant is asked to either recall the sequence in normal or reverse order.Digit-span tasks are the most commonly used test for memory span, partially because performance on a digit-span task cannot be affected by factors such as semantics, frequency of appearance in daily life, complexity, etc.

Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by DSST4 months

DSST(Digit Symbol Test).,The participants need to write the number referred to each symbol in 90 seconds.Number of hits are registered. The test measures short-term memory, visualspatial skills and attention.

Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by MoCA4 months

MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), The visual spatial executive ability, naming,memory, attention, language fluency, abstract,thinking, delayed memory and directional force are included in the test, a total of 30 points. The subjects whose have less than 12-year of education were added 1 point in the testing result, with correction of bias in the degree of culture. The patients whose get higher scores indicate that the cognitive function is better, 26 points as normal.

Change in patient's cognitive dysfunction evaluated by WCST4 months

The Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) is a neuropsychological test of "set-shifting",.A number of stimulus cards are presented to the participant. The participant is told to match the cards, but not how to match; however, he or she is told whether a particular match is right or wrong. The test takes approximately 12-20 minutes to carry out and generates a number of psychometric scores, including numbers, percentages, and percentiles of: categories achieved, trials, errors, and perseverative errors
