Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis of amputation.
* The data were expressed as median (IQR).
CI, confidence interval; fx, fracture; HR, hazard ratio; IA, inotropic agent; IQR, interquartile range represents the distance between the 25th and 75th percentiles; pRBC-T, amounts of pack red blood cell transfusion.
