Background: To Frailty is associated with postoperative delirium (POD) but is rarely assessed in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. In this study, the correlation between preoperative frailty and POD, one-year mortality will be investigated in noncardiac Chinese geriatric surgery patients.
Methods: This study is a prospective, observational, cohort study conducted at a single center with Chinese geriatric patients. Patients who undergo noncardiac surgery and are older than 70 years will be included. A total of 536 noncardiac surgery patients will be recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University for this study. The Barthel Index (BI) rating will be used to assess the patient's ability to carry out everyday activities on the 1st preoperative day. The modified frailty index (mFI) will be used to assess frailty. Patients in the nonfrailty group will have an mFI < 0.21, and patients in the frailty group will have an mFI ≥ 0.21. The primary outcome is the incidence of POD. Three-Minute Diagnostic Interview for CAM-defined Delirium (3D-CAM) will be conducted twice daily during the 1st-7th postoperative days, or just before discharge. The secondary outcomes will include one-year mortality, in-hospital cardiopulmonary events, infections, acute renal injury, and cerebrovascular events.
Discussion: This study will clarify the correlation of preoperative frailty with POD and one-year all-cause mortality in Chinese geriatric patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Can preoperative frailty predict POD or one-year mortality? In the face of China's serious aging social problems, this result may have important clinical value for the surgical treatment of geriatric patients.
Trial Registration: This protocol has been registered with ClinicalTrials. Gov on 12 January 2022 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05189678).

Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Background: It remains unclear whether the incidence of post-operative acute kidney injury (PO-AKI) has been reduced despite the recent emphasis on its early recognition and prevention in clinical practice. We aimed to investigate the trend in the incidence of PO-AKI and to identify the associated factors affecting its changes.
Methods: We gathered clinical data from patients who underwent non-cardiac major surgeries at three referral hospitals from 2005 to 2020.
Incidence and Predictors of Cardiac Complications Following Elective Versus Urgent Non-cardiac Surgeries.
Cureus
December 2024
College of Nursing and Health Sciences, Jazan University, Jazan, SAU.
Cardiac complications following non-cardiac surgeries are a significant cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the incidence and predictors of cardiac complications in patients undergoing elective and urgent non-cardiac surgeries. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for studies published between 2010 and 2024.
