ABSTRACT
Delirium and Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (POCD) are well described complications both cardiac and non-cardiac surgery especially in the elderly. The estimated incidence is between 25-80% depending on the type of surgery, definition and the time of postoperative assessment. There seems to be a significant association between delirium and POCD and a decline in quality of life and higher mortality. This review describes the incidence, risk factors, definitions, patophysiology, diagnosis, treatment and long term consequences of delirium and POCD.
