Description

These data were gathered from the NSQIP participant use file from the years 2012-2016 and contain all patients who underwent hysterectomy and who are Hispanic or non-Hispanic and white. Patients with cancer diagnoses or who underwent staging procedures were excluded. We used these data to determine the risk of postoperative morbidity for Hispanic patients, and identified an elevated risk of blood transfusion.
