LOA, limits of agreement (MD ± 1.96SD); MD, mean difference; SD, standard deviation of the difference; SEL, standard error of limit; SEM, standard error of the mean difference; SpO2trachea, mixed venous oxygen saturation measured through the left main bronchus; SvO2blood, oxygen saturation from pulmonary artery samples.
