Summary
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive arm cuff procedure done 24 hours before surgery can reduce lung complications like pneumonia in adults aged 65 and older. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either a real or sham cuff inflation. The goal is to see if this gentle stimulation can activate the body's natural defenses and protect the lungs during recovery.
