Neuroinflammation and Alzheimer's Pathology in POCD
Recruiting
The purpose of this project is to investigate the role of both neural inflammation and pre-existing neurodegenerative pathology in the risk and pathogenesis of post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). To achieve this goal, the investigators will combine blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling, standardized cognitive tests, and dynamic neurophysiological markers of cortical network dysfunction in the form of event-related potentials (ERPs), to assess the link between neurodegeneration an...
