Study Overview

Brief Summary

The primary aim of this interventional study is to investigate the impact of perioperative administration of Maxigesic (combination of acetaminophen and ibuprofen) on delirium after minimally invasive lung surgery in elderly patients. The Maxigesic group receives a total of 5 doses of Maxigesic (20mg/kg, maximum dose per serving: 1g) every 6 h from immediately after anesthesia induction. The control group receives the same volume of normal saline. Researchers compare the incidence and severity of postoperative delirium for 5 days after surgery.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Incidence of postoperative delirium(POD)

Time Frame: From immediately after surgery to 5 days after surgery

Confusion assessment method(CAM)/Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU) or delirium record on electrical medical record(EMR) will be used for the evaluation of POD.

Secondary Outcomes

  • ICU stay(Immediately after surgery to ICU discharge(usually within about 5 days after surgery))
  • Postoperative nausea, vomiting(Immediately after surgery to postoperative 48 hours)
  • Hospital stay(Immediately after surgery to hospital discharge(usually within about 30 days after surgery))
  • Severity of POD(From immediately after surgery to 5 days after surgery)
  • Postoperative pain(Immediately after surgery to postoperative 48 hours)
  • Consumption of opioids(Immediately after surgery to postoperative 48 hours)
  • Postoperative complications(Immediately after surgery to hospital discharge(usually within about 30 days after surgery))
  • Duration of POD(From immediately after surgery to 5 days after surgery)
  • Preoperative cognition(1 day before surgery)
  • Preoperative frailty(1 day before surgery)
  • Drug side effects(Immediately after surgery to hospital discharge(usually within about 30 days after surgery))
