Parsimonious model was obtained using backward selection of variables with P < 0.1 from the multivariate logistic regression model

AOR, adjusted odds ratio; ASA, American Society of Anesthesiologists; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; LRYGB, laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; LSG, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy; PE, pulmonary embolism; ref, reference
