All values are shown as median (range) and represent means of data collected during a 60-minute measurement. FV, cerebral blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery; PaCO2, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide; SaO2, arterial oxygen saturation; TOI, tissue oxygenation index. TOI and FV are averaged values from both cerebral hemispheres. P values were calculated with the Mann-Whitney U test. | |||
