Brief Summary: Chinas aging population is causing an increase in the number of senior persons undergoing surgery More and more clinicians are paying attention to the postoperative survival and mental health of elderly surgical patients

Dexmedetomidine DEX is an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that works by inhibiting norepinephrine releasing renaline which reduces inflammation and thus plays a protective role in the central nervous system DEX has the potential to prevent and treat postoperative anxiety and depression in elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery

Further exploration of evidence for evidence-based medicine is needed Based on the above research background this hypothesis is proposed in elderly patients undergoing noncardiac surgery intraoperative DEX is associated with a reduction in short-term postoperative mental disorders and a reduction in long-term postoperative mortality
Detailed Description: Studies have suggested that continuous infusion of low-dose DEX during the night after surgery can significantly reduce the incidence of delirium alleviate pain and improve subjective sleep quality

However it is currently unclear whether choosing DEX during anesthesia has any impact on mortality and mental disorders in older patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery

Therefore we utilized prospective research data from 7 centers in China to explore the relationship between intraoperative use of DEX and postoperative 12-month mortality and mental disorders Propensity score-matching PSM and Inverse probability of treatment weighting IPTW were conducted and subgroup analyses were also applied
