Pathophysiology of postoperative delirium: Systemic inflammation as a response to surgical trauma causes diffuse microcirculatory impairment

Original language description

Postoperative delirium represents a serious complication after major surgery. Patients suffer from anxiety, hallucinations and delusions, and have higher postoperative morbidity and mortality. Generally, the role of acetylcholine deficiency in delirium pathophysiology is widely accepted. How this pathologic state evolves in the postoperative period is the topic of this paper. Therapeutic tools to modulate excessive inflammation are available, therefore new strategies of delirium treatment should be implemented in clinical praxis, as well as in preventive measures.
