Description
Toshio Shiraishi and colleagues studied confusion after bowel cancer surgery in 2026. The confusion state is called postoperative delirium. Older adults face higher risk of the state. Bowel cancer cases are also rising as populations age. The team reviewed more than six thousand surgery patients. Care came from multiple centers. Fifty patients developed delirium after surgery. Their features were compared with all other patients. Models then tested which factors predicted delirium on their own.
Delirium patients were far older on average. Most were over eighty years old. They also had open surgery more often. Their operations ran shorter, and advanced tumors were less common. Adjusted models kept two clear predictors. Age over eighty raised the odds strongly. Open surgery raised the odds moderately. Delirium also tied to longer hospital stays. The authors urge the least invasive surgery possible for older patients.
