I've found a great number of postoperative agitation in the elderly patients undergone knee replacement receiving spinal anesthesia.
Most of them had agitaton and delirium like syndrome in the first 6 hours aftere surgical procedure.
Sometimes sedation using midazolam was not successfull.
I ask if somebody has expeience administring propofol in bolu doses.
Thanks
I too observed such problem espesially in old patients. I started giving
meth.cobalamin injection for two to three days once a day. I did not see
the problem again.

Hyponatremia may present similarly in the post-operative period of elderly
Electrolyte check and appropriate correction helps.
How does methcobalamin help
