Legends to Supplemental Figures

Supplemental Figure 1. Model by surgery type. The significance of the predictive model was assessed for each surgery type. The model coefficients correlated significantly with pain on POD1 for each surgery type (p<0.001). Bars, boxes, and whiskers represent the median, interquartile range, and 95% confidence interval, respectively.

Supplemental Figure 2. Model by study center. The significance of the predictive model was assessed for the three centers contributing the largest numbers of patients. The model coefficients correlated significantly with pain on POD1 for each center (p<0.03). Bars, boxes, and whiskers represent the median, interquartile range, and 95% confidence interval, respectively.

Supplemental Figure 3. Additional clinical and pharmacological parameters. Other model parameters correlated with pain on POD1 including: surgery duration (A), preoperative pain (B), intraoperative dose (C), volatile anesthetic use (D), and sex (E) (all parameters p<0.001). Black bars, boxes, and whiskers represent the median, interquartile range, and 95% confidence interval, respectively.
