Brain Tumor Surgery and Postoperative Delirium

Study Purpose

1. To explore whether the combined administration of dexmedetomidine during and after surgery in patients undergoing brain tumor resection is an effective and safe modality to prevent postoperative delirium and improve sleep quality than giving it alone after surgery. 2. To explore whether intraoperative and postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine to patients undergoing brain tumor surgery can reduce postoperative acute pain and prevent chronic pain. 3. To explore whether intraoperative and postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine to patients undergoing brain tumor surgery can provide stable anesthesia depth, hemodynamics and reduce the dose of anesthetics, thereby accelerating patient recovery.

Experimental: Participant Group

brain tumor postoperative

Interventions

Drug: - Dexmedetomidine

During the surgery, target-controlled infusion (TCI) pumps were used, employing the Dyck model for continuous infusion of propofol, with the target plasma concentration maintained at 0.2 ng/ml. Postoperatively, propofol was infused at a rate of 0.2-0.4 mcg/kg/hr according to the intensive care unit's protocol, until the patient had the endotracheal tube removed.

Drug: - Normal Saline

During the surgery, equal volumes of saline were injected. After the surgery, the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit, where propofol was continuously infused at a rate of 0.2-0.4 mcg/kg/hr according to the ICU protocol, until the endotracheal tube was removed.
