Brief Summary: Prevention of Postoperative Delirium in the care of Elderly Patients A Monocentric Prospective Intervention Study With the Question of Whether the Incidence Length and Severity of Postoperative Delirium Can be Reduced by Implementing a Standardised Multidimensional Delirium Management Protocol
Detailed Description: Within the framework of a six-month observation period the investigators intend to identify risk factors of the patient collective for the development of postoperative delirium For this purpose a preoperative risk assessment is performed which includes cognitive and physical performance as well as premedication and concomitant diseases Included are patients of at least 65 years of age of defined specialties Postoperatively patients who have undergone the assessment are tested for delirium once per shift until the third postoperative day and severity and duration are documented After completion of the observation period risk factors favoring the development of postoperative delirium will be identified In the subsequent intervention period patients from the age of 65 years with an additional identified risk factor will receive standardized targeted perioperative care This includes both adherence to preventive measures in accordance with guidelines and the recommendation of therapeutic measures if a delirium is diagnosed Through the standardized interprofessional and interdisciplinary application of the described approach the investigator aim to reduce the incidence duration and severity of postoperative delirium Furthermore the evaluation of the identification of the weighting of risk factors as well as the identification of risk factors by the tests performed length of hospital stay three-month mortality and daily living skills after three months In addition a baseline EEG standardized awake EEG before initiation is recorded in a subgroup to determine whether patients at risk for delirium can be identified and whether intraoperative EEG parameters support the delirium risk assessment
