Base excess (BE) collected in a peripheral artery and the Coronary Sinus. Base excess (BE) was measured in a peripheral artery (A) and in the Coronary Sinus (CS), (B). There was no difference between normothermic (n = 8) and hypothermic pigs at baseline. During early (+1 minute) and late (+10 minutes) reperfusion there was a significant reduction in BE in the normothermic group in samples from the peripheral artery (A). In samples from the CS, there was a marked reduction in BE in both groups during early reperfusion, which then nearly returned back to baseline at late reperfusion with no difference between the groups (B).
