Patients with major orthopedic surgery will be recruited. Participants will be monitored for delirium after surgery. Participants' blood will be harvested for the determination of haptoglobin types, levels of oxidative stress and inflammation. Investigators will then analyze the data to see if haptoglobin 2-2 type is associated with an increased postoperative delirium, inflammation and oxidative stress.
