PROMoTE Trial Summary

This trial is testing if a delirium-reduction program can help reduce postoperative delirium (POD) in older surgical patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for older adults (60+) who are having major elective surgery with a hospital stay of at least one night and show signs of cognitive impairment on initial tests. It's not for those undergoing heart or brain surgery, with substance use disorders, or who may not follow the study plan.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a program designed to prevent delirium after surgery in older patients. This includes pre-surgery cognitive tests to identify risk, care team recommendations, and educational materials for patients and families on preventing confusion post-surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves non-medical strategies like sleep aid and hydration rather than drugs, there are no direct side effects from medications. However, stress related to changes in routine or misunderstandings about the prevention measures could occur.
