Table 5 Determination of the nature of effusion, n (%)

Time point	Total cases of effusion	Simple effusion	Mixed effusion	χ²/t	P value
POD1	28	20 (71.43)	8 (28.57)	-	-
POD3	42	27 (64.29)	15 (35.71)	0.571	0.450
POD7	37	24 (64.86)	13 (35.14)	0.007	0.935
Overall comparison	-	-	-	0.295	0.863

P < 0.05 indicated significant difference. Mixed effusion was defined by the presence of internal echogenic debris, septations, or gas echoes. No significant temporal trend was observed in the proportion of mixed effusion (P > 0.05). POD: Postoperative day.
