Building a Platform for Precision Anesthesia in the Geriatric Surgical Patient
Recruiting
I'm InterestedTrial ID: NCT03839784
Purpose
The research team is creating a foundational infrastructure in order to develop a precision
medicine approach for geriatric patients who require surgery with anesthesia. The team plans
to build the first of its kind comprehensive database of demographic and risk factor
questionnaire responses, biobanked blood specimens, intraoperative electroencephalography
(EEG), and inclusive cognitive testing throughout patient interaction starting at the preop
appointment until a year later. This will be used to create a predictive model of
periooperative neurocognitive disorders.
