Correlation between microcirculation and global hemodynamics. Changes from baseline (100%) of cardiac index (CI; red circles), mean arterial pressure (MAP; white circles) and functional capillary density (FCD; blue circles) over the study period. Changes in FCD appear to occur earlier than significant changes in MAP and already during the hyperdynamic phase.
