Outline of Final Research Achievements

With the onset of post-operative delirium in elderly patients, delay in treatment and nursing may occur due to the symptoms, and establishing countermeasures is an urgent issue. This study aims to develop a delirium prevention program which begins prior to surgery, by identifying the relationship between pre- and post-operative sleep activity indices and post-operative delirium onset, while focusing on the patient’s rhythm of life before hospitalization. Data from 52 patients who received cardiovascular surgery were analyzed, and pre-operative factors considered to be related to the presence or severity of post-operative delirium were considered. As a result, age, sleep efficiency before hospitalization, time to perform moderate activity before hospitalization, and pre-operative renal function and total protein were identified. From this, development of a nursing support program to maintain and improve sleep efficiency and moderate activity before hospitalization was examined.
