No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the awareness of post-operative delirium (POD) and post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), their respective risk factors and effective preparation and treatment options in a pre-clinical sample of patients attending a premedication outpatient clinic (Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Campus Virchow-Klinikum, Berlin, Germany) prior to elective surgery.

The investigators hypothesize that the awareness for POD/POCD as potential risk in consequence of the surgery is very low in patients, and that therefore easy to use measure for prevention are underutilized by patients.
