Effect of Epidural Analgesia on Burst Suppression

Summary

It has been shown in previous studies that burst suppression has an effect on the development of postoperative delirium (POD) and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). With the development of technology, EEG-based anesthesia management is getting more and more attention. In particular, methods that reduce anesthetic drug consumption are expected to prevent POD and POCD by reducing burst suppression. There are studies that show that epidural analgesia applications reduce general anesthesia drug consumption in patients receiving general anesthesia. In this study, investigators want to investigate the effect of epidural analgesia combined with general anesthesia on burst suppression. POD and POCD development in these patients will be examined as secondary objectives.
