Summary

This study observes how three standard pain-control methods—opioids given through a vein, epidural, or nerve block—affect how quickly patients aged 65 and older get out of bed after major surgery. Researchers track time to first sit, stand, or walk, along with pain levels, confusion, and patient satisfaction. The goal is to understand which approach may help older adults recover and move sooner in the intensive care unit.
