Data represent the last ten minutes of the RAHF phase and expressed as a percentage of CAHF. Significance is expressed as *p<0.05. LVDevP: left ventricular developed pressure; LVEDP: left ventricular end diastolic pressure; LVESP: left ventricular end systolic pressure; CAHF: critical acute heart failure; RAHF: recovery acute heart failure; Sig.: significance; ns: not significant.
