Cases were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and induction, maintenance, and recovery were conducted in accordance with the standard protocol for general anesthesia. After tracheal intubation and before tracheal tube removal at the end of the surgery, the parameters for iTBS stimulation frequency and duration were as follows: intensity was 80% of the active movement threshold, with 3 pulses per cluster at 50Hz, a frequency of 5Hz, 30 clusters of 10 pulses each, an 8 - second interval, and a single 600 - pulse; the 8 - shaped coil was connected to the electrodes in the designated head area (left frontal lobe cortex).Observation contents: Whether there is postoperative delirium and its severity: 3D - CAM assessment scale, DMAS assessment scale; awakening time, extubation time, PACU stay time, hospital stay time; 1 - 7 days after surgery or before discharge, POD assessment and pain - sleep assessment, the first time getting out of bed; postoperative complications; adverse reactions; adverse events, and so on.

Incidence of postoperative delirium within 7 days after surgery.
In the anesthesia recovery room, the CAM-ICU(The Confusion Assessment method for the ICU ) scale was performed 30 min after extubation. Postoperative delirium was measured by the 3D-CAM (The 3-Minute Diagnostic Confusion Assessment Method)scale from postoperative day 1 until postoperative day 7 or before discharge from the hospital. The CAM scale includes four major features: 1. Acute onset or fluctuating changes in condition 2. Inattention 3. Confusion 4. Changes in level of consciousness. Delirium is diagnosed when features 1 and 2 are positive at the same time, and/or features 3 and 4 are positive.
Time frame: From the day of surgery to 7 days after surgery.Twice a day after surgery, once in the morning and once in the afternoon
The severity of postoperative delirium
If the patient develops delirium, assess the severity with the MDAS( Memory Disorder Assessment Scale).The total score is 30 points, and the higher the score, the greater the degree of delirium
Time frame: From the day of surgery to 7 days after surgery
