Heart rates (beats per minute, averaged over 10 seconds immediately before each event) recorded at different events in treatment groups. PB = pentobarbital. LORR = loss of righting reflex. ECoG = isoelectric electrocorticograph. p values represent within group comparisons to baseline. Main effects were significantly different for all groups (p < 0.0001, all cases). Figures in parentheses are the 95% confidence intervals for the mean difference between baseline and event being compared. See text for results of between group comparisons. Data are mean ± SD.PB = pentobarbital. LORR = loss of righting reflex. ECoG = isoelectric electrocorticograph.
