Figure 3.
Stroke volume (e), left ventricular dP/dtmax (f), left ventricular end-systolic volume (g), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (h), left ventricular end-systolic pressure (i), and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure expressed as a consequence of cooling to 28°C and rewarming in animals receiving saline infusion (n = 7), or continuous infusion of Epi (0.125 μg/min), and intermittent infusion of Epi (1.25 μg/min) (n = 7). Before rewarming, infusions were terminated. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. +P < 0.05 compared with saline group, and †P < 0.05 comparisons within Epi group at each temperature.
