Table 2 Comparison of surgical, acute care, rehabilitation and follow-up between implant treatment groups

	Surgical implant				P-value
	LISS(n = 19)	LISS-R(n = 11)	LISS-N(n = 8)	Alternative(n = 8)	LISS vs alternative	LISS-R vs LISS-N	LISS-R vs LISS-N vs alternative
Surgery within first 48 h	11 (58%)	6 (55%)	5 (63%)	6 (75%)	0.6655	1.0000	0.8773
Operation blood loss (mL)	521.1 (296.4)	490.9 (328.5)	562.5 (261.5)	806.3 (925.2)	0.2304	0.6173	0.4761
