Effects of light acute hypervolemic hemodilution on early postoperative cognitive function in elderly patients / 实用医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of light acute hypervolemic hemodilution on early postop-erative cognitive function in elderly patients. Methods A total of 60 patients treated by radical surgery were equally randomized to an AHH and a non-AHH control group.Using the Mini-Mental State Examination scale (MMSE),we evaluated the cognitive function of the patients.We made comparisons between the two groups in the plasma S100β levels at T0(before anesthesia induction),T1(immediately after hemodilution),T2(immediately after operating),T(36 hour after operating)and T(424 hour after operating).Results The S-100β lever at T2、T3 and T4were markedly higher than T0in both groups(P<0.05);At T3and T4,the S-100β lever was higher in non-AHH control group than AHH group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postopera-tive cognitive dysfunction between the two groups(P>0.05)There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction between the two groups(P > 0.05). Conclusions AHH can significantly reduce plasma S100β in elderly patients,but there is no effect on early postoperative cognitive function.
