      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: In this study, the block randomization method will be used using blocks of six in random order. Then the patients who will meet the entry criteria; According to the block randomization method, they will be placed in groups (in this method, the treatment blocks are moved back and forth randomly and different situations can be created with blocks of length 6 for two groups, for example: ABCABC-BACABC-ABCBAC-ABCCBA... and The mentioned situations continue until the sample volume is filled). Blocks will be randomly selected with Excel software and at the disposal of a researcher who has no involvement in choosing the type of intervention; Placed, Blinding description: Blinding Method:
This study will be conducted as a triple-blind trial. To achieve this, after generating the random sequence using Excel software, the intervention drug (Erythropoietin) and the placebo (Normal Saline) will be prepared in identical, unlabeled syringes. A unique numeric code will be assigned to each syringe, and the key linking codes to the specific treatments will be kept in sealed, opaque envelopes, accessible only in emergency situations.
In this study:
Patients are blinded to the type of treatment received (Erythropoietin or Placebo).
The Anesthesiologist administering the drug is unaware of the syringe contents and administers the injection solely based on the assigned code.
Outcome Assessors, including trained ICU nurses responsible for recording delirium scores (ICDSC), hemodynamic parameters, and tracheal extubation time, are blinded to the patients' group assignments.
The Statistical Analyst will remain blinded to the group allocations until the completion of data analysis.
All personnel involved in data collection will receive adequate training prior to the study commencement to ensure the integrity of the blinding process.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Patients will receive a single intravenous dose of erythropoietin (150 IU/kg) at the time of anesthesia induction. Intervention 2: Patients will receive an equivalent volume of normal saline as a placebo, administered intravenously at the time of anesthesia induction.</i_freetext>
