Maintenance Anesthetics and Postoperative Delirium in Older Adults Undergoing General Anesthesia: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials

2025-09-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Postoperative delirium (POD) is a frequent and serious complication in older surgical patients. The optimal maintenance anesthetic to prevent POD remains uncertain due to fragmented and inconsistent evidence. This systematic review and network meta-analysis will compare the effectiveness of remimazolam, propofol, sevoflurane, desflurane, isoflurane, xenon, and ciprofol, and establish an evid...
