Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine if lower extremity elevation (LEE) will reduce the incidence of postinduction hypotension, to compare the utilization of vasoactive medications after induction in patients with LEE and patients without LEE and to determine if LEE will increase measured cardiac output
