Objectives of Study:

(1) To investigate the correlation between perioperative blood glucose and the occurrence of delirium in elderly CABG patients. (2) A literature study and the Delphi method were used to construct an intervention programme of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation combined with auricular acupoint pressure in elderly CABG patients to verify the effect in improving blood glucose and reducing delirium.

Description for medicine or protocol of treatment in detail:

Inclusion criteria

(1) between 60 and 85 years of age; (2) elective coronary artery bypass grafting under extracorporeal circulation.

Exclusion criteria:

(1) have a history of mental illness or mild cognitive impairment (score <3 using Mini-Cog screening); (2) have a history of alcoholism or history of substance abuse; (3) have severe vision hearing and speech impairments; (4) require long-term use of hormonal medications; (5) contraindications to transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation or auricular acupressure: e.g. pacemaker skin infection auricular skin damage allergy to polar tablets etc.; (6) the existence of severe liver and kidney dysfunction before the operation; (7) the existence of obvious blood sugar abnormalities before the operation such as HbA1c ≥ 6.5%; (8) the number of days between confirmation of surgery and the day of surgery is less than 3 days; (9) already participating in other clinical trials.

Randomization Procedure (please state who generates the random number sequence and by what method):

This study used block group randomisation whereby random sequences were generated by a research assistant independent of the research team using SAS 9.4 software. The process of generating the random sequence followed a 1:1 allocation ratio (control group to test group). The generated random sequences were stored in an encrypted electronic file in the possession of the research assistant only which was inaccessible to the research team throughout the study.
