One patient received norepinephrine, had urinary retention and was not defined as a responder or non-responder. Baseline mixed venous saturation measured in two patients was 49 and 59 %, respectively. Results are shown as mean ± standard deviation or frequency (percentage). *Statistically significant difference versus non-responders for that threshold. n number of patients or measurements, NR non-responders, ScvO 2 central venous oxygen saturation, R responders
