ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Neurocognitive decline (NCD) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with implications for outcomes and quality of life. Identifying risk factors can help surgeons implement preventative measures, optimize modifiable risk factors, and counsel patients about risk and prognosis.METHODS:
Prospective cohort study at a single academic center. 104 patients planned to undergo cardiac surgery were enrolled. The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) was used to measure neurocognitive function preoperatively, on postoperative day four, and postoperative day 30. NCD is defined as a change in RBANS scaled score of < -8 from baseline to postoperative day 4. Patient charts were reviewed for medication history beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme and angiotensin receptor blockers, calcium channel blockers, statins, oral hypoglycemic agents, and psychoactive medications. Charts were also reviewed to calculate postoperative opioid usage.RESULTS:
NCD was detected in 42.9% of patients. Incidence of NCD was significantly higher in patients taking a psychoactive medication (56.8%) than patients not (31.9%), P < 0.03. There was no relationship between historical use of beta-blocker, calcium-channel blocker, statin, or oral hypoglycemic medications and incidence of NCD. Simple linear regression showed no relationship between change in RBANS total scaled score and opioid usage. There was no difference in incidence of NCD at 1 mo.CONCLUSIONS:
Patients with a history of taking psychoactive medications prior to cardiac surgery have an increased risk of acute postoperative NCD.Palavras-chave
