Inflammation of the central nervous system cause postoperative delirium (POD),it is due to systematic inflammation induced by surgery. This can be known afterexperiments with animals. Memory impairment and neutralizing antibodies maybe caused by the high-morbidity cluster box protein. This may decreasepostoperative memory decline in experiments on adult rats. Recently, it is knownthat POD can increase the incidence of morbidity and mortality in postoperativepatients. Prehabilitation is highly recommended for POD. However, the use of VRcan be an option for elderly patients, patients with cognitive impairment andstroke. VR is also a hope for the population. This study is also very important totest VR Neuroprehabilitation for the prevention of POD in certain populations.
