Optimization of the cardiac delirium index by including age, decrease in butyrylcholinesterase actitivity, preoperative HbA1c, and postoperative hemoglobin levels: results of a secondary analysis of a prospective observational study

Optimization of the cardiac delirium index by including age, decrease in butyrylcholinesterase actitivity, preoperative HbA1c, and postoperative hemoglobin levels: results of a secondary analysis of a prospective observational study

IntroductionPostoperative delirium (POD) after cardiac surgery significantly affects the perioperative morbidity and mortality. Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is an enzyme primarily produced in the liver, which plays a crucial role in the hydrolysis of acetylcholine outside of neuronal synapses, refer...
