Title: Assessment on Deliration of Old Age Patients after Operation with General Anesthesia and Epidural Anesthesia
Abstract: Objective To compare the influence of general anesthesia and epidural anesthesia on the operative deliration of old age patients.Methods All 120 patients undergoing major abdominal surgery in our hospital from 2010.1-2012.1 were selected and divided into two groups:general anesthesia group(60 cases) and epidural anesthesia group(60 cases).During and after operations,the levels of ECG,MV,MAP,HR,SpO2,PEtCO2 and deliration in two groups were observed.Results During and after operations,the levels of ECG,HR,MV,SpO2,PEtCO2 in two groups have no significance differences(P0.05),but MAP has significance difference(P0.01).The delirium formation rate of general anesthesia group(56.0%) is higher than epidural anesthesia group(26.0%) after operations(P0.05).Conclusion The delirium formation rate of general anesthesia is higher than epidural anesthesia group;therefore,we should select appropriate anesthetic techniques to reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium.
