Abstract
UNLABELLED: Symptoms of orthostatic intolerance are common after general anesthesia and are associated with an increased risk of postoperative morbidity. The contribution of orthostatic hypotension (OH) has not been well defined. We conducted a head-up tilt test on patients after general anesthesia for minor surgery to assess the incidence of and risk factors for OH after general anesthesia. One-hundred-four patients were enrolled and were prospectively divided into four groups: older female, older male, young female, and young male. The incidence of OH was 76.0%, 72.0%, 45.5%, and 62.5% respectively and was associated with increasing age (P < 0.05) and posttest dizziness (P < 0.05). Body mass index, preoperative blood pressure, ASA class, anesthetic duration, IV fluid administration, and use of analgesics and antiemetics in the postanesthetic care unit were not different in subjects who demonstrated OH compared with those with a normotensive response. Subjects with OH after general anesthesia did not increase their heart rate and diastolic blood pressure with a head-up tilt which may have been caused by persistent effects of anesthetics on reflex cardiovascular control and/or bedrest-induced dysregulation of reflex cardiovascular control. We conclude that OH is common after general anesthesia for minor surgery and may be the major cause of postoperative orthostatic intolerance. IMPLICATIONS: Orthostatic hypotension, a failure to maintain blood pressure on assuming an upright posture, is common after general anesthesia for minor surgery and may be the major cause of postoperative orthostatic intolerance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
