First seen May 23, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether using a drug combination without opioids during anesthesia can lower the chance of postoperative delirium (sudden confusion) in people 65 and older having gastrointestinal surgery. About 174 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either opioid-free or standard opioid anesthesia. The main goal is to see how many develop delirium within a week after surgery.
