Heart surgery patients: can a simple score predict Post-Op confusion?
NCT ID NCT05218720
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observed 100 adults having planned heart surgery to see how many develop delirium (sudden confusion) and whether a standard risk score called EuroSCORE II could predict it. Researchers checked patients for delirium using a special test. The goal was to better understand the link between surgical risk and this common complication.
