  1. Female gender, ASA classification I-II, having no anemia, receiving no allogeneic blood transfusion and spinal anesthesia are reference categories.
  2. * Expressed in HR (Hazard Ratio), all other risk factors in OR (Odds Ratio)
  3. CI = confidence interval, LOS = length of stay, NH = nursing home, ASA = American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification, ABT = allogeneic blood transfusion.
