In this episode of Updates in Anesthesiology, Dr. Hadzic breaks down the results from the PRECISION study published in Anesthesiology (2025). Led by Dr. Cui and colleagues, this prospective trial reveals that nearly 1 in 9 older patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, especially neurosurgical, experience covert strokes detectable only by MRI. These “silent” strokes double the risk of postoperative delirium and long-term cognitive decline. Tune in to hear what this means for perioperative care, how to identify patients at risk, and actionable strategies to protect brain health after surgery.
