Brief Summary:
Postoperative delirium is one of the common complications in the older aldults after surgery, which can lead to longer hospita stay，memory loss and reduced quality of life. There is currently no specific treatment. Therefore, it is important to prevent the occurrence of postoperative delirium. This study investigated the effect of intranasal insulin administration on the prevention of postoperative delirium and compared different doses of insulin to find a safe and acceptable method for preventing delirium.
Detailed Description:
Hip fractures are a common trauma in older adults and occur mainly in older people with osteoporosis. Surgery is the preferred choice for the vast majority of patients with severe pain and limited mobility in older aldults with hip fractures, resulting in higher mortality and disability rates with conservative treatment. But postoperative delirium becomes a challenge. At present, the treatment of delirium includes pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods, but the effect is limited, and now the focus is on preventing delirium, so this study investigated the effect of intranasal insulin administration on the prevention of postoperative delirium.
