简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to determine whether macrophage/monocyte mediated inflammatory signaling contributes to reduced anesthetic requirements in older adults undergoing major abdominal surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Is there a difference in anesthetic dosing requirements (minimum effective dose) between young and older patients undergoing major abdominal surgery?
- How do electroencephalographic (EEG) signatures under anesthesia correlate with age and systemic inflammatory markers?
- Is there an association between age, levels of circulating inflammatory cytokines, and monocyte/macrophage phenotypes with anesthetic requirements?
If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare older adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery to younger adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery to see if macrophage/monocyte-mediated inflammatory signaling influences anesthetic sensitivity and the risk of postoperative neurocognitive complications in the older population.
Participants will:
- Receive general anesthesia for major abdominal surgery, with continuous recording of anesthetic dose requirements.
- Undergo electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring during the anesthetic period.
- Provide blood samples for the measurement of circulating inflammatory cytokines and the assessment of monocyte phenotypes.
- Provide peritoneal tissue samples (collected during surgery) to evaluate tissue macrophage populations.
- Provide cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples to assess biomarkers of blood-brain barrier permeability.
