This study is intended to explore the impact of mild cognitive impairment on the incidence of delirium after cardiac surgery in older patients. The main question this study tries to answer is: Does preoperative mild cognitive impairment influence the incidence of postoperative delirium in cardiovascular surgery? Participants diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment who are supposed to perform cardiovascular surgery will answer questionnaires about cognitive function after surgery.
