BACKGROUND: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) affects numerous patients each year and is associated with poor outcomes. Currently, the duration of POCD is not known. This preclinical study determined whether POCD was persistent, different between sexes and transmittable to the next generation.
METHODS: Two-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats had left carotid artery exposure under isoflurane anesthesia and their learning and memory were assessed from 5 days, 2 months, and 4 months after surgery. Rats with or without surgery were mated when they were 4 or 6 months old, and the learning and memory of the offspring were tested at 2 months of age.
RESULTS: Males exposed to surgery took a longer time to identify the target box after training sessions in a Barnes maze and had less freezing behavior in context-related fear conditioning than control rats when the tests were started 5 days after surgery. Similarly, female rats had a poorer performance than control rats in the Barnes maze test from 5 days after surgery. However, these poorer performances were not observed when the tests were administered 2 or 4 months after surgery. The offspring of rats with surgery had a performance similar to that of the offspring of control rats.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that both male and female rats develop POCD but that the learning and memory dysfunction appears to be more severe in male rats. POCD may not be persistent and does not transmit to the next generation.
