Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
On the day of surgery, after successful neuraxial anesthesia, in the experimental group ，0.125mg/kg esketamine and 0.3ug/kg dexmedetomidine are diluted into 30ml of normal saline and continuously pumped for 20 minutes, followed by a micropump: 15ug/kg/h esketamine 0.02ug/kg/h dexmedetomidine to 96ml saline, continuous amount: 2ml/h, continuous pumping for 48h. Morphine 1 mg is given epidural at the beginning of surgery；while in the control group, same amount of normal saline is given. The patients are followed up for sleep quality, pain and delirium incidence after surgery. Long-term telephone follow-up of patients are focused on their cognitive function and recovery quality.
