Mean ± SD values of cardiac output (CO), femoral blood flow (FBF) and oxygen consumption (V̇O2) in the 10 rats exposed to 0.75 mg/kg/min KCN. Data have been compared to the effects of an infusion of KCl (equimolar infusion, 11.5 micromol/kg/min). Same legend as in Figure 10. Again, note the very rapid decrease in cardiac output and VO2 despite mechanical ventilation unrelated to the effects of potassium per se.
