Two hemodynamic studies were performed: one at the diagnosis of SBP and the other after the resolution of the infection. The time that elapsed between the studies was <7 days. The data are presented as means and standard deviations.
*
Significantly different in comparison with the values at the diagnosis of SBP.
†
Significantly different in comparison with the values at the diagnosis of SBP in the group without type 1 HRS.
