Brief Summary
|
This study is a Prospective Observational study, done to study the post operative cognitive functions of elderly patients undergoing Urogynaecological surgery after exposing them to General Anaesthesia in total number of 60 patients including men and women above the age of 60 years. Patients will be admitted at least 1-2 days prior to surgery. Pre- operative assessment will be done on patients using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and then Postoperative cognitive status is also examined either in person or by telephone using MoCA on Day 1, 2 and 90.
