Incidence and factors associated with postoperative delirium in patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumor.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Postoperative delirium is an important complication after surgery, including urological surgery. This study evaluated the incidence of postoperative delirium and its associated factors after transurethral resection of bladder tumor in adult patients.

Methods

Patients aged ≥20 years who underwent elective transurethral resection of bladder tumor under general anesthesia from April 2016 to November 2020 were included. Patient demographic and intraoperative data, including the administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid and hypotension, defined as a mean arterial pressure value < 60 mmHg, were evaluated. The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative delirium assessed using a chart-based method. The factors associated with postoperative delirium were explored usi
