Postoperative delirium (POD) remains one of the most common neuropsychiatric complications after deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. The fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) has been shown to significantly correlate with prognosis of many diseases associated with inflammation, but the relationship between FAR and POD is unclear. The investigators aimed to investigate the association between POD and FAR in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients receiving DBS surgery. For this aim, the present study was conducted to provide a new method for the early recognition and perioperative management of delirium after DBS surgery in PD patients.

Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) score
MMSE score ranges from 0 to 30 and higher score means better cognitive function.
Time frame: Before surgery
MMSE score
MMSE score ranges from 0 to 30 and higher score means better cognitive function.
Time frame: Postoperative 24 hour
MMSE score
MMSE score ranges from 0 to 30 and higher score means better cognitive function.
Time frame: postoperative 72 hour
The level of fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) in peripheral blood.
The FAR was calculated as fibrinogen / albumin.
Time frame: Before surgery
