Preoperative Dietary Fat Consumption and Baseline Inflammatory Markers

Pre-op Dietary Fat Intake and Baseline Inflammation in Older Adults Undergoing Major Non-cardiac Surgery: Examining Diet-related Risk Factors for Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders in Obese and Normal BMI Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This single-center, prospective pilot study will examine dietary fat consumption and its relationship with inflammatory markers before surgery and the incidence of perioperative neurocognitive disorders in older surgical patients. The study will assess the feasibility getting diet-related information in a surgical setting and will establish baseline dietary patterns in older adults. It will also measure the incidence of postoperative cognitive impairment (POCI) in patients with high fat consumption and gather patient perspectives to inform future nutrition-focused interventions for older surgical candidates.
