Results of analysis of changes in mean FOE (SE) between each stage of the operation for the different temperature groups
| All patients (n = 30) | Profound hypothermia (n = 15) | Mild/moderate hypothermia (n = 15) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before bypass | 0.362 (0.023) p = 0.13 | 0.378 (0.035) p = 0.52 | 0.347 (0.030) p = 0.12 |
| Cooling | 0.404 (0.022) p = 0.01 | 0.405 (0.037) p = 0.01 | 0.402 (0.024) p = 0.25 |
| Cold bypass | 0.371 (0.029) p = 0.06 | 0.380 (0.044) p = 0.50 | 0.360 (0.038) p = 0.003 |
| Rewarming | 0.428 (0.020) p = 0.10 | 0.414 (0.029) p = 0.53 | 0.443 (0.026) p = 0.06 |
| After bypass | 0.384 (0.023 | 0.383 (0.036) | 0.386 (0.029) |
p Values refer to the results of paired t tests between consecutive stages for each group.
