BACKGROUND: The investigate the associations of the ASA physical status system with clinical, pathological, and perioperative features of PCa patients treated with RP that eventually associated with PLND. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of prospective collected data from January 2013 to October 2020, including1329 patients. The ASA system was preoperatively assessed for each patient. Evaluated clinical factors were grouped as preoperative, perioperative, and pathological and were statistically associated with the ASA system. Continuous variables were represented as medians with relative interquartile ranges (IQR) and categorical factors were assessed as frequencies (percentages). Associations and risk of each ASA class with population features were assessed by the multinomial logistic regression model (univariate and multivariate analysis). All tests were two-sided with p < 0.05 considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: Postoperative complications at discharge occurred in 27,2%. The distribution of the ASA physical status system was as follows: ASA I 108 patients (8,1%), ASA II 1081 subjects (81,3%) and ASA III 140 cases (10,5%). Median length of hospital state (LOHS) was the same for ASA groups I and II (4 days), but longer (5 days) for the ASA group III. On MVA, the risk of delayed hospital stay was associated only with ASA III patients and was independent from age and BMI. Clavien-Dindo complications greater than 2 did not show any independent association with the ASA system. CONCLUSIONS: The ASA preoperative physical status system predicted the likelihood of longer LOHS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The investigate the associations of the ASA physical status system with clinical, pathological, and perioperative features of PCa patients treated with RP that eventually associated with PLND. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of prospective collected data from January 2013 to October 2020, including1329 patients. The ASA system was preoperatively assessed for each patient. Evaluated clinical factors were grouped as preoperative, perioperative, and pathological and were statistically associated with the ASA system. Continuous variables were represented as medians with relative interquartile ranges (IQR) and categorical factors were assessed as frequencies (percentages). Associations and risk of each ASA class with population features were assessed by the multinomial logistic regression model (univariate and multivariate analysis). All tests were two-sided with p < 0.05 considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: Postoperative complications at discharge occurred in 27,2%. The distribution of the ASA physical status system was as follows: ASA I 108 patients (8,1%), ASA II 1081 subjects (81,3%) and ASA III 140 cases (10,5%). Median length of hospital state (LOHS) was the same for ASA groups I and II (4 days), but longer (5 days) for the ASA group III. On MVA, the risk of delayed hospital stay was associated only with ASA III patients and was independent from age and BMI. Clavien-Dindo complications greater than 2 did not show any independent association with the ASA system.
