Read the detailed description

The study was a prospective cohort study, assessing the effect of age, duration of anesthesia, repeated surgery, and type of surgery on cognitive impairment in 108 geriatric patients (≥60 years) who underwent general anesthesia for non-neurologic noncardiac surgery. The study used cognitive tests such as RAVLT, TMT, and Digit span tests. POCD definition is reduction in postoperative cognitive function by as much as 20% at a minimum of 2 cognitive tests.
