Hospital worried about his 老年癡呆。the hospital evaluated my dad ag

Hospital said one of the medicine he takes for parkinson (Amantadine) is making him saying nonsense. They concluded my dad is OK for surgery. They decided to perform surgery after new year.

But my family is hesitated. They think my dad does have 老年癡呆. My dad runs around at night. Yesterday night, he stands out side his room alone. My family said the fix they put in will dislocate quickly if my dad runs around without knowing what he is doing, and my dad will have to do surgery again to put it back in. This will hurt him a lot.

What to do? My family does not care if he can walk or not. As long as he can sit in wheel chair and his 老年癡呆 is not getting worse, they are happy.

My dad has high blood pressure and Parkinson. He has low white blood cell before. Other than that he is OK. Recently he has some 老年癡呆. 

Will the effect of 全身麻醉 long or short term? Will 全身麻醉 make his 老年癡呆 worse?

Should we go with surgery or just 局麻打個骨釘?

 

Thanks

• 最好是股骨頭置換。因為股骨頸骨折後因為股骨頭沒有血供，股骨頭壞死的可能性很大。 -薛成- ♂ (0 bytes) () 12/30/2016 postreply 09:50:04

• 經濟上差別可大了。我不知道國內現在收費情況，反正這不在一個檔次。不過，如果股骨頭無菌性壞死，患者有疼痛。 -薛成- ♂ (0 bytes) () 12/30/2016 postreply 10:23:11

• 一個是小手術，一個是大手術。不過，圍手術期是在醫護人員監護下，度過就一勞永逸了。 -薛成- ♂ (0 bytes) () 12/30/2016 postreply 10:38:12

• many thanks, what is the chance the fix will dislocate? -guest917d- ♀ (917 bytes) () 12/30/2016 postreply 11:13:38

• 如果手術做的好，安裝的位置角度滿意，等三周以後疤痕愈合了，可能性就減小了，時間越長，就越不容易發生。 -薛成- ♂ (0 bytes) () 12/30/2016 postreply 11:20:55
