Risk factors for postoperative delirium in orthopedic surgery patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Postoperative delirium is a common and serious complication in orthopedic surgery patients, particularly in the elderly. This study aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the risk factors associated with postoperative delirium in orthopedic surgery patients.

Methods

A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, Cochrane Library, SpringerLink, Elsevier Science Direct, and CNKI databases from inception to October 2024. Studies reporting risk factors for postoperative delirium in orthopedic surgery patients were included. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS), and meta-analyses were performed using random-effects models to calculate pooled risk ratios (RR) and weighted mean differences (WMD) with 95% confidence in
