Intranasal Insulin Improves Postoperative Neurocognitive Disorders in Elderly Patients

November 6, 2022 updated by: First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong University

Intranasal Insulin Improves Postoperative Neurocognitive Disorders in Elderly Patients: a Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study

Postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) are common postoperative complication of central nervous system, leading to increased risk of the working ability loss after surgery, longer hospital stay, increased medical costs and increased surgical mortality. It is classified as perioperative neurocognitive disorders in mental disorders.Aging is an important demographic characteristic in China, and the elderly is also a population susceptible to PND. There is a lack of targeted prevention and control measures for PND. Central insulin resistance is an important mechanism of cognitive impairment in elderly patients, and exogenous supply of central insulin may be an important measure to improve PND. Compared with conventional subcutaneous and intravenous supply, intranasal insulin administration not only has little effect on blood glucose and insulin levels, but also enters the center through the blood-brain barrier easily and efficiently. Long-term use of intranasal insulin can improve the cognitive function of chronic diseases, but there is a lack of clinical studies on improving PND by intranasal insulin. This study will verify the effectiveness of intranasal insulin in the PND improvement of elderly patients.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is intended to carry out a large sample, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo, and controlled clinical study. Elderly non diabetes patients undergoing elective extrathoracic, breast, orthopedic, urinary, abdominal, and gynecological operations under general anesthesia are included. They are randomly divided into intranasal insulin group or saline group. Before anesthesia induction, they are given the first nasal spray, once per hour, 20 IU insulin or equal volume saline each time until the end of the operation. Follow up 1 day before operation, 1-7 days after operation, 30 days and 12 months respectively, and evaluate cognition with relevant scales. To verify that compared with the same volume of saline, intranasal insulin can reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium, the incidence of PND 1 year after surgery, and the related cognitive quantitative indicators of ApoE- ɛ4 Gene susceptibility, intraoperative EEG parameters, NfL, IL-6, IL-10, CRP and other biochemical indicators were used to explore the mechanism of intranasal insulin to improve PND.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.
