Summary

This study will use brain wave information, known as electroencephalography (EEG), to help guide anesthesia delivery during surgery. It is believed that the use of EEG has the potential to reduce postoperative delirium - a common side effect of general anesthesia. Postoperative delirium is known to cause long lasting cognitive deficits and increase the chance of developing dementia in geriatric patients. This study aims to reduce these risks posed by modern day anesthesia practices through more efficient delivery of anesthesia utilizing brain wave activity information.

Conditions

  • Delirium - Postoperative

Interventions

OTHER

EEG-guided anesthesia training program for anesthesia providers

The EEG-guided anesthesia training session for the anesthesia providers will administer simulation-based assessments at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and at one, three, and six month follow-up time points to track provider competency in EEG interpretation and anesthetic titration.

DEVICE

EEG-Guided Intervention

All surgical patients in Part B of the study will receive EEG-guided anesthesia. EEG data collected from patient participants will be provided as live data during their surgical procedures to the anesthesia provider. Anesthesia providers may use this data to assist their decision-making on anesthetic delivery.
