Study on 80,070 patients undergoing hepatic resection reveals a 1.46% occurrence of postoperative delirium, with key risk factors including older age, male sex, depression, and various comorbidities. Patients with delirium had longer hospital stays, higher costs, and increased mortality rates than those without. Understanding these factors is crucial for enhancing care management and outcomes in this patient population.
