Calculations based on mean P50 of this study (P50 = 27.1 mmHg) with PCO2 levels (4) and cooling rates (32–34) from other studies, respectively. Temperature is denoted in columns and PCO2 in rows. P50, oxygen partial pressure at which 50% of hemoglobin is saturated with oxygen; PCO2, carbon dioxide partial pressure.
