Table 1.
Grand mean (±S.D) of ICP, HMF, CPP, & ABP before, during, and after plateau wave
| Phase of wave and No. recordings | ICP (mmHg) | HMF (Hz) | CPP (mmHg) | ABP (mmHg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Before | 28.3 ( ±5.5) | 2.69 ( ±1.01) | 58.2 ( ±7.6) | 86.5 ( ±5.2) |
| (n = 8) | P < 0.0003a | P < 0.00003 | P < 0.00036 | |
| During | 48.5 ( ±6.6) | 4.71 ( ±0.70) | 37.2 ( ±8.41) | 86.4 ( ±7.6) |
| (n = 9) | P < 0.017 | P < 0.026 | P < 0.028 | |
| After | 21.9 ( ±8.9) | 2.32 ( ±2.32) | 67.1 ( ±7.84) | 89.3 ( ±10.1) |
| (n = 4) |
Level of significance between grand means was determined using Student’s t-test
