Summary

An assessment of the feasibility of structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans in older people who have recovered from and older people who never had delirium after hip fracture surgery

Detailed description

Postoperative delirium, an acute sate of confusion occurs with higher frequency in older people. Hip fracture surgery is a procedure associated with an increased risk of postoperative delirium. In the study the feasibility of achieving structure and functional connectivity imaging of the brain, using magnetic resonance imaging, in older people who are recovering from hip fracture surgery will be assessed. People who have recovered from post operative delirium and people who did not have postoperative delirium will be included.

Conditions

• Magnetic Resonance Imaging
