Delirium is common after cardiac surgery, and preoperative identification of high-risk patients could guide prevention strategies. We prospectively measured frailty in 55 patients before cardiac surgery and assessed postoperative delirium using a validated chart review. The prevalence of frailty was 30.9%. Frail patients had a higher incidence of delirium (47.1%) compared with nonfrail patients (2.6%; P < 0.001). In multivariable models, the relative risk of delirium was ≥2.1-fold greater in frail compared with nonfrail patients (relative risk, 18.3; 95% confidence interval, 2.1-161.8; P = 0.009). Frailty may identify patients who would benefit from delirium-prevention strategies because of increased baseline risk for delirium.
谵妄在心脏手术后很常见,术前识别高危患者可指导预防策略。我们前瞻性地测量了55例心脏手术患者术前的虚弱程度,并通过经过验证的图表回顾评估术后谵妄情况。虚弱的患病率为30.9%。与非虚弱患者(2.6%;P<0.001)相比,虚弱患者谵妄的发生率更高(47.1%)。在多变量模型中,与非虚弱患者相比,虚弱患者发生谵妄的相对风险高≥2.1倍(相对风险为18.3;95%置信区间为2.1 - 161.8;P = 0.009)。由于谵妄的基线风险增加,虚弱可能识别出可从谵妄预防策略中获益的患者。
