| Abstract | BACKGROUND: In previous studies, we found that approximately 25% of patients having carotid endarterectomy with general anesthesia (CEA general) develop cognitive dysfunction compared with a surgical control Group 1 day and 1 mo after surgery. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that patients having CEA with regional anesthesia (CEA regional) will develop significant cognitive dysfunction 1 day after surgery compared with a control group of patients receiving sedation 1 day after surgery. We did not study persistence of dysfunction. METHODS: To test this hypothesis, we enrolled 60 patients in a prospective study. CEA regional was performed with superficial and deep cervical plexus blocks in 41 patients. The control group consisted of 19 patients having coronary angiography or coronary artery stenting performed with sedation. A control group is necessary to account for the 'practice effect' associated with repeated cognitive testing. The patients from the CEA regional group were enrolled at New York Medical Center and the control group at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center. The cognitive performance of all patients was evaluated using a previously validated battery of neuropsychometric tests. Differences in performance, 1 day after compared with before surgery, were evaluated by both event-rate and group-rate analyses. RESULTS: On postoperative day 1, 24.4% of patients undergoing CEA regional had significant cognitive dysfunction, where 'significant' was defined as a total deficit score > or =2 SD worse than the mean performance in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Patients undergoing CEA regional had an incidence of cognitive dysfunction which was not different than patients having CEA general as previously published and compared with a contemporaneously enrolled group. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
