Fig. 2From: Esmolol for cardioprotection during resuscitation with adrenaline in an ischaemic porcine cardiac arrest modelLeft ventricle pressure measurements. Left ventricle (LV) pressure measurements at baseline and post-arrest were compared between control and esmolol groups using Pearson’s chi-squared test. There were no significant differences in LVPmax (p = 1.0), dP/dtmax (p = 0.1) or dP/dtmin (p = 0.3). LVPmax maximum left ventricle (LV) pressure, dP/dtmax maximum LV pressure first time derivate or maximum rate of LV pressure increase, dP/dtmin minimum LV pressure first time derivate or maximum rate of LV pressure decreaseBack to article page
