Multivariable backward selection logistic regression models examined all variables that were significant in univariate analyses with p<0.05; for 90-day thromboembolic complications, none of the variables were significant in univariate analyses and therefore, multivariable analyses could not be performed

ASA, American Society of Anesthesiology; BMI, body mass index; NS, not significant;

---, not adjusted since the analyses were done separately for those with and without respective prior events
