Normally distributed values are reported as mean ± standard deviation, and the statistical test used was analysis of variance for repeated measurements. Non-normally distributed values are reported as median (25th to 75th percentile), and P value was determined using Friedman's two-way analysis of varience with post-hoc Wilcoxon signed rank test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus baseline. HR, heart rate; CI, cardiac index; MAP, mean arterial pressure; PaO2/FiO2, arterial oxygen tension/fractional inspired oxygen; PHVHF, pulse high-volume haemofiltration; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
