Values are means ± SD. MAP, mean arterial pressure; HR, heart rate; SV, stroke volume; CO, cardiac output; TPR, total peripheral resistance; HbSat, hemoglobin saturation; PETCO2, end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide; PETO2, end-tidal partial pressure of oxygen. An effect of time was found for SV whereby the maneuver period was reduced vs. baseline (P < 0.001). An effect of time was found for MAP whereby the rebreathe and maneuver period were greater than baseline (both P < 0.001).

*

P < 0.01, significantly different from baseline.

P < 0.01, significantly different from RBREnd.
