Figure 2

Box and whisker plots of hemodynamic and metabolic data before and during epinephrine infusion. Box and whisker plots of (i) heart rate, beats⋅min-1(A) before epinephrine infusion (minimum = 70; maximum (max) = 180; median = 135) and during epinephrine infusion (minimum = 70; max = 212; median = 159) (variance (w) = 2,563; P = 2.10-8); (ii) mean arterial pressure, mmHg (B) before epinephrine infusion (minimum = 25; max = 65; median = 51) and during epinephrine infusion (minimum = 30; max = 94; median = 66) (variance (w) =2613; P = 5.10-11); (iii) plasma glucose, mmol⋅L-1(C) before epinephrine infusion (minimum = 4; max = 10.1; median = 6.2) and during epinephrine infusion (minimum = 4.9; max = 23.3; median = 9.85) (variance (w) = 339; P = 6.10-9) and (iv) lactate levels, mmol⋅L-1(D) before epinephrine infusion (minimum = 0.5; max = 3; median = 1) and during epinephrine infusion (minimum = 0.9; max = 7.1; median = 2.1) (variance (w) = 218; P = 3.10-10).
