Common drug tested to stop Post-Surgery confusion in seniors
NCT ID NCT06969287
Summary
This study is testing if fluvoxamine, an existing medication, can prevent delirium (sudden, severe confusion) in older adults after non-heart, non-brain surgery. Researchers believe inflammation after surgery may cause delirium and that fluvoxamine might reduce this inflammation. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible for a larger future trial to improve recovery and quality of life.
