Fig 4. Responses over time of arterial blood biochemical markers to mechanical ventilation.

Fig 4

Blood samples from each pig were collected at specific time-points and blood biochemistry was assessed using a point-of-care device. pH: potential of hydrogen, HCO3-: bicarbonate ion, BEecf: base excess in the extracellular fluid compartment, SaO2: arterial oxygen saturation, PaO2: arterial oxygen pressure, PaCO2: arterial carbon dioxide pressure, ETCO2: end-tidal carbon dioxide, *: outlier measurements.
