Perioperative Care & Cognition
Recent studies have suggested that surgery has a small long-term effect on cognition and that perioperative ischemic brain injury may contribute. These studies, and their context, will be described and critiqued, providing the attendee with the pertinent insights from papers published in the BMJ and Lancet.
