^Hi thanks for that reply, yeah, thats why i wanna know personally if trendelenburg really works, because if it is not effective anymore although it has not proven harmful either, i mean why use it if it doesn't make a difference? :) Please post some more replies, greatly need your insights. Thanks

Forgive me for having the nerve to ask you for help on my research. I am a 3rd year nursing student, my topic is "an experimental study on what position is effective in hypotensive patients". We are thought in class that whenever we have hypotensive clients is that we put them in trendelenburg position. But we found articles saying that trendelenburg is not effective in increasing Bp of hypotensive clients. So with my research, I wanna know if what position should a hypotensive patient be assisted, is it in trendelenburg, in flat position or in passive leg raising. The problem is, I don't know what will be my statement of the problem and hypotheses, because it is an experimental study. Please do not advise me to seek help from my adviser, because, my adviser herself doesn't understand what i am trying to research. This is what i have in mind: Statement of the problem: 1. what is the demographic profile of the patient in terms of: a. age b. gender 2. is there a significant difference among the position of hypotensive patients. Hypothesis: there is no significant relationship between the position and the hypotensive patients. Please help me edit it. I am just so desperate because the first time we did a defense last february, we were not accepted. So this is my second time already in trying to fix this research. Thank you so much, i will greatly appreciate it.
