Perioperative Factors Associated With Postoperative Delirium in Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery: An Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common and serious complication after surgery. Various predisposing factors are associated with POD, but their magnitude and importance using an individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis have not been assessed.

Objective

To identify perioperative factors associated with POD and assess their relative prognostic value among adults undergoing noncardiac surgery.

Data sources

MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL from inception to May 2020.

Study selection

Studies were included that (1) enrolled adult patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, (2) assessed perioperative risk factors for POD, and (3) measured the incidence of delirium (measured using a validated approach). Data were analyzed in 2020.
