Delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction are important and common complications after surgery. Risk factors are first of all increasing age and type of surgery, whereas the type of anaesthesia does not seem to play an important role. Mortality is higher among patients with cognitive dysfunction than among patients without such dysfunction.
谵妄和术后认知功能障碍是手术后重要且常见的并发症。风险因素首先是年龄增长和手术类型，而麻醉类型似乎并不起重要作用。有认知功能障碍的患者死亡率高于无此功能障碍的患者。
