Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will evaluate several potential risk factors for postoperative delirium in cardiac surgery patients. The risk factors will include use of specific preoperative, intraoperative, and/or postoperative medications. Other risk factors investigated may include exposure to cardiopulmonary bypass, surgical technique, and or duration of surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In order to understand the role of medication usage and/or cardiopulmonary bypass, the investigators propose to leverage the perioperative data warehouse (PDW), an IRB approved data registry, to retrospectively evaluate the subjects. All patient data available in the warehouse may be included in the review. At this time, there are approximately 750,000 patients in the PDW. All data will be accessed retrospectively after the patient has been seen for their care here at Vanderbilt.

The Vanderbilt Perioperative Information Management System (VPIMS) is part of an integrated system that covers the entire perioperative process including instrument \& supply management, scheduling, and status displays. Because of the extensive effort that has been put toward in-house intraoperative software development, the Vanderbilt Anesthesiology \& Perioperative Informatics Research (VAPIR) Division is able to benefit from the availability of thousands of historical intraoperative records, each containing detailed physiologic information. The PDW incorporates VPIMS and electronic healthcare records (EHR) to build its database. In addition to PDW, information from the Society for Thoracic Surgeons (STS) database will be used in our study.

The database uses algorithms created by programmers with the assistance clinicians to screen the data and assess for accuracy and completeness. Once the data is compounded and uploaded, each variable is screened for outliers by a clinician. Outliers will be assessed and validated by a clinician based on trends from the raw data. The data collected for this study includes an extensive data dictionary listed below:

The size of the registry for cardiac surgery patients in currently over 8,000 patients which should be more than enough to demonstrate an effect.

The following is a brief description of the investigators data analysis:

* Categorical variables will be expressed as frequency and percentage.
* Continuous variables will be reported as median and interquartile range (IQR).
* the investigators will compare the prevalence of medication use with the incidence of postoperative delirium and adjust for confounders.
* Analysis will initially be completed with adjusting for confounders, and then consider matching patients with propensity score based on initial results.
* Statistical significance (p≤0.05) for categorical variables will be computed using the Fisher's exact test or chi-squared and the Deuchler-Wilcoxon procedure or t-test for continuous variables.
* An iterative expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm will be considered to account for missing values or other form of imputation method unless deletion of missing data is more ideal.
