Summary
This study aims to evaluate the possible Correlation Between Serum Levels of Markers of Neuronal Injury and Cognitive Dysfunction after Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery.
Detailed description
The systemic inflammatory response after cardiac surgery may cause damage to the central nervous system and elevated markers of brain injury in peripheral blood. This event may be potentially related to the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), with incidences varying from 20 to 83%.
