Brief Summary

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

Neurosurgery is a risk factor for delirium. Dexmedetomidine might reduce delirium by reducing neuroinflammation, improving postoperative analgesia and sleep quality. The the primary hypothesis is that perioperative administration of dexmedetomidine can reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium

Detailed Description

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

The investigators will be required to attend the professional training before recruitment and strictly adhere to the study protocol. All the raw data will be recorded in the case report forms. Data will be entered doubly performed by two investigators and monitored securely in an electronic database with password protection at the medical center. The data base will be locked after all data have been cleaned. All the original fles will be maintained in storage for 5 years after completion of the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Dex group

Subjects assigned to Dex group will receive a continuous dexmedetomidine infusion (0.4 ug/kg/h) after anesthesia induction until dural closure, and then received an intravenous analgesia pump with dexmedetomidine(0.08ug/kg/h), sufentanil and antiemetic until 48 hours postoperatively

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Dexmedetomidine

Intervention Type DRUG

In Dex group, dexmedetomidine will continue to be used during and after surgery, with a infusion of 0.4ug/kg/ h from anesthesia induction to dural closure, and then 0.08ug/kg/ h to 48 hours postoperatively.In placebo group, equivalent normal saline will be injected during operation, and the intravenous analgesia pump will not contain dexmedetomidine after operation

Placebo group

Subjects in the Placebo group were given comparable volumes of normal saline during the surgery, and intravenous analgesia pump also contains sufentanil and antiemetic, but no dexmedetomidine used until 48 hours postoperatively.
