High (> 5%) Aortic and major vascular surgery, peripheral vascular surgery
Intermediate (1 to 5%) Intraperitoneal or intrathoracic surgery, carotid endarterectomy, head and neck surgery, orthopedic surgery, prostate surgery
Low (< 1%) Ambulatory surgery, breast surgery, endoscopic procedures, superficial procedures, cataract surgery
