Delirium and Neuropsychological Recovery Among Emergency General Surgery Survivors
July 6, 2023 updated by: University of Wisconsin, Madison
Delirium and Neuropsychological Recovery Among Emergency General Surgery Survivors (DANE)
This study will evaluate the usefulness of the Emergency General Surgery (EGS) Delirium Recovery Model.
It is hypothesized that the cognitive, physical and psychological recovery of older EGS delirium survivors will be improved through the use of the EGS Delirium Recovery Model.
Participants can expect to be on the study for 18 months.

Detailed Description
This is a multi-site, two-arm, single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of the EGS Delirium Recovery Model to improve the cognitive, physical and psychological recovery of older EGS delirium survivors.
At or near the time of discharge, enrolled participants will be randomized to receive the EGS-Delirium Recovery Model or usual care.
The hypothesis is that, after 18 months, older EGS delirium survivors who are randomized to the EGS Delirium Recovery Model will experience more favorable cognitive, physical and psychological recovery in comparison to those randomized to usual care.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: EGS Delirium Model
The delivery of the model will occur in five phases that correspond to the known stages of recovery after surgery.
During the acute stage (0 - 1 month after surgery), participants will undergo the initial case review and two initial virtual visits, and the development of the recovery care plan.
During the recovery (2 - 6 months after surgery) and maintenance (7-12 months after surgery) stages, the participants will undergo the interaction phase of the EGS Delirium Recovery Model.

Virtual visits with care coordinator to carry out an individualized recovery plan
Physical, cognitive, and psychological assessments

Other: Usual Care
Participants will receive the usual rehabilitation and post-operative care.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in overall cognitive recovery
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in score on the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) cognitive screening assessment.
The measure consists of 12 subtests that contribute to a total score and Index scores across five domains: Immediate Memory, Visuospatial-Constructional, Language, Attention, and Delayed Memory.
Index scores are converted to age-based standard scores (Mean = 100, Standard Deviation = 15)
|
Baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB)
Time Frame: 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in overall physical recovery will be assessed using Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB).
SPPB is a group of measures that combines the results of the gait speed, chair stand and balance tests, and yields a performance score of 0-12; 0-4 poor, 5-7 intermediate, 8-12 good.
|
6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in overall physical recovery
Time Frame: 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in overall physical recovery will be assessed using 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36).
SF-36 scale has eight components (physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health).
|
6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)
Time Frame: 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in overall psychological recovery will be assessed using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9).
The PHQ-9 is a nine-item depression scale with a total score from 0 to 27, with higher scores indicating greater depression.
|
6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) .
Time Frame: 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months
|
Change in overall psychological recovery will be assessed using General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) to determine the impact of the intervention on participant's mood and anxiety.
The GAD-7 is a seven-item anxiety scale with a total score from 0 to 27, with higher scores indicating greater anxiety.
