Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The primary objective of this study is to clarify the association between intraoperative Patient State Index (PSI) under remimazolam anesthesia and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), which will be assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) before and after surgery. The secondary objective is to explore the relationship between PSI and postoperative delirium (POD).

Other related information

This is a single center, prospective observational study to evaluate the association between intraoperative Patient State Index (PSI) under remimazolam anesthesia and postoperative cognitive changes. Adult patients aged 20-60 years undergoing open abdominal surgery will be enrolled. Cognitive function will be assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) before surgery and at discharge or postoperative day 30. PSI will be monitored continuously during anesthesia, and its relationship with anesthetic depth and physiologic parameters (e.g., blood pressure, BIS) will be analyzed. The primary outcomes are the change in MoCA score and the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). The secondary outcome is the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD). The planned study period is June 2025 to March 2027.
