Time to motor-evoked potential (MEP) recovery after 25-minutes of aortic occlusion (n = 10^∗)

Variable	TC-MEP	biTE-MEP	monoTE-MEP
Without spinal cord injury (min) (Tarlov 4, n = 5)
to >25% of baseline	28.4 ± 10.2	26.0 ± 11.6	26.4 ± 11.1
to >50% of baseline	36.0 ± 11.7	33.6 ± 11.5	35.2 ± 12.5
to >75% of baseline	47.6 ± 11.3	46.0 ± 12.6	45.2 ± 13.3
With paraparesis (min) (Tarlov 2 and 3, n = 3)
to >25% of baseline	50.0 ± 5.3	46.7 ± 6.1	45.3 ± 4.6
to >50% of baseline†	58	56	56
With complete paraplegia (min) (Tarlov 0, n = 1)
This dog showed no recovery of MEP

Values are presented as mean ± standard deviation. TC, Transcranial; MEP, motor-evoked potential; biTE, bipolar transesophageal; monoTE, monopolar transesophageal.

^∗One dog died 5 minutes after aortic occlusion was released.

^†Only 1 of the 3 dogs showed recovery to >50% of baseline.
