💡 Small Drop + Symptoms > Large Drop + No Symptoms
Symptomatic OH carries a HIGHER fall risk than asymptomatic OH, even with a smaller BP drop.
Ask "Do you feel dizzy or lightheaded?" at EVERY measurement — not just once.
A patient with a 15 mmHg drop who feels dizzy is at greater risk than a patient with a 25 mmHg drop who feels fine.
Document symptoms alongside every BP value. Numbers without context are incomplete.
