Summary

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is a relatively common in elderly patients after hip surgery, but exact mechanism of its onset is still unclear as well as contributing factors. There is also increased incidence of depression and anxiety. Both affect the recovery after surgery, slow it down and reduce the quality of life. Patients will be divided into two groups, operated under regional anaesthesia and operated under general anaesthesia, and monitored after surgery. Patients will be tested before and after surgery to evaluate postoperative cognitive deficits, depression and anxiety scale and health-related quality of life questionnaire.
