Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is a common complication during postoperative period?especially in elderly patients. It is characterized by cognitive decline, inattention and abnormal mental status following surgery. The presence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction is independently associated with poor recovery, increased hospital length of stay and increased mortality. Desflurane is a widely used volatile anesthetic, associated with shorter emergence times than other volatile anesthetics. This study aims to access the effect of desflurane in preventing postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
