Brief Summary:
The present study will evaluate the role of melatonin prophylaxis in delirium prevention in elderly patients undergoing colorectal procedures.
Detailed Description:
This study is a prospective randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial. Patients who meet the criteria for inclusion/exclusion will be evaluated. Melatonin tablets will be administered as a premedication to patients in the melatonin group. Patients in the control group will be given placebo tablets as a premedication. Fentanyl 1ug/kg and propofol 1-2 mg/kg will be used to induce anaesthesia. Atracurium 0.5 mg/kg will be used for the facilitation of endotracheal intubation. Isoflurane will be used to maintain anaesthesia and the depth of anaesthesia will be adjusted by a Bispectral index monitor. Postoperatively, the patients will be monitored for the development of delirium.
