BP blood pressure, PAP pulmonary arterial pressure, CVP central venous pressure, CCO continuous cardiac output, SvO 2 mixed venous oxygen saturation, PEEP positive end-expiratory pressure, FiO 2 fraction of inspired oxygen, paO 2 partial pressure of oxygen, paCO 2 partial pressure of carbon dioxide, ctHb concentration of total blood haemoglobin, ALT alanine aminotransferase, AST aspartate aminotransferase

The analysis was carried out using a mixed model with a random intercept for each sample. The results are presented as mean difference and 95 % confidence intervals, including a linear time trend and using each sheep’s baseline (time 0) as a covariate
