Statistical methods / analysis
Data of approximately 300,000 patients fromNational Minimum Dataset (NMDS) and National Mortality Registry. The dataset will be split for derivation and validation. We will use multivariable logistic regression with backward stepwise regression to derive the models.

ASA was handled as a categorical predictor with 5 categories. Operation type was mapped onto surgical grade in 4 categories of minor, intermediate, major and major-complex. Cancer was a bivariate variable for presence or absence of a cancer with potential to affect mortality. Acuity was categorical elective or acute. Age was handled as a continuous predictor.
We will use multivariable logistic regression with backward stepwise regression. Univariate analysis will be performed initially using chi-squared testing to test the relationship between each independent variable and 30-day mortality. All analyses will performed to validate a predictive model of 30-day mortality and then repeated to derive predictive models of 30-day, one-year and two-year mortality respectively. Variables that had more than 10% missing values were excluded from the analysis. Incremental improvements in the extended models by incorporating gender and ethnicity will be assessed by change in AUC and integrated discrimination improvement.
The predictive model will be derived from the full dataset and was then resampled using bootstrapping to evaluate performance. Reporting the results will be according to the TRIPOD statement.
