Influence of intraoperative fluid administration (corrected for BMI and the duration of surgery; ml fluid/unit BMI*minute of operation duration) on the length of hospitalization after robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. Analysis was conducted using parametric multiple linear regression models additionally corrected for age and the interaction term between the amount of fluids administered and the age of the patient. Significant effects (p < 0.05) are marked with “*” and presented in bold font. BMI = body mass index; Std. Error = standard error; y = years; AIC = Akaike’s information criterion.
