Table 2.

NIRS-observed values of %HbO₂ and [THb] at the pre-occlusion, end-occlusion, and peak post-occlusion time points. Also shown are the times at which the greatest magnitude of post-occlusion %HbO₂ and [THb] responses occurred, the Δ%HbO_2END and Δ%HbO_2POST values, and the Δ[THb]_END and Δ[THb]_POST values. To reduce table size, %HbO₂ and [THb] are replaced with the letter V in the table header; other aspects of the abbreviations are unchanged. Mean ± SE are given; n = 6. For the variables reflecting changes from baseline, the 95% CI is also given. None of these CI’s included the value zero, indicating statistically significant changes.
