PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 0-72 hours post-operatively

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all randomized patients, who received the study drug, had general anesthesia and surgery. Following the intent-to-treat principle, patients were assigned to the study treatment group according to the treatment to which they were randomized.
