Figure 1

Intraprocedural data comparing deep sedation (DS) vs general anesthesia (GA) groups during percutaneous mitral valve repair. Boxplot diagrams showing values in the DS and GA groups. The boxes consist of the 25% to the 75% quartiles of all measurements. The crossline marks the median of measurements (50% quartile). The whiskers mark the smallest and largest measurements. The circles are outliers. A, The procedure time was significantly shorter in patients undergoing mitral valve repair in DS, *P=0.031. B, Similarly, fluoroscopy time was significantly shorter in the DS group, *P<0.001. C, The dose area product was significantly smaller in the DS group, *P<0.001.
