Tau, end-diastolic pressure volume relation, systolic wall thickening velocity, and left ventricular wall dimensions. Changes in tau, end-diastolic pressure volume relation, systolic wall thickening velocity, and left ventricular wall dimensions during spontaneous, penultimate, and ultimate tolerable heart rates at normo- (closed symbols) and hypothermia (open symbols). *p ≤ 0.05 for comparison with spontaneous heart rate within temperature level. ** p ≤ 0.01 for comparison with spontaneous heart rate within temperature level.
