This study aims to build a tool that helps predict risks for older adults (65+) before planned major non-cardiac surgery. By understanding what factors affect recovery, doctors may be better able to plan your care.
This study looks at whether family visits after surgery can reduce the risk of confusion (delirium) in older adults. It helps us understand how social support affects recovery.
This study looks at ways to predict and prevent serious problems like death or heart complications after major heart or blood vessel surgeries. It involves two parts: first, a check to see if you're at higher risk, and second, extra monitoring during surgery if needed.
This study looks at a redesigned surgical care plan to better support older adults who may have memory or thinking changes after major planned surgery. If you qualify, you would be assessed before surgery and followed after to see whether this approach helps.
This study adds an extra scientific program to help prevent confusion (“delirium”) after surgery in older adults. If you were already planned to join the main prevention program, this may help improve how care is delivered and how outcomes are measured.
This study looks at how older adults experience surgery and recovery, and how to improve their care before and after the operation. It may help make hospital stays and recovery easier for people over 65.
