Table 1. Changes in intraventricular pressure, mean arterial pressure, and pulse rate due to Queckenstedt's test.
Time point | IVP (mmHg) | p-value | MAP (mmHg) | p-value | PR (beats/min) | p-value |
Before Q-test | 3.4±2.0 | 88.8±12.7 | 348.3±69.1 | |||
During Q-test | 9.9±2.2 | 0.008 | 75.3±16.7 | 0.008 | 341.2±80.5 | 0.515 |
<30sec After Q-test | 3.5±1.8 | 0.953 | 87.0±13.7 | 0.314 | 337.0±76.1 | 0.028 |

(n = 9).
<30 sec After Q-test: less than 30 seconds after Q-test.
>30 sec After Q-test: more than 30 seconds after Q-test.
Abbreviations: IVP, intraventricular pressure; MAP, mean arterial pressure; PR, pulse rate; Q-test, Queckenstedt's test. For p-values, comparison is to the initial time point (before Q-test).
