Summary

This study looked at whether waiting two minutes before lying flat after a spinal injection can prevent low blood pressure in older adults (65+) having hip fracture repair. 90 patients were split into two groups: one waited two minutes, the other lay down right away. The goal was to see if the short delay made blood pressure more stable during surgery.
