From: Efficiency of 7.2% hypertonic saline hydroxyethyl starch 200/0.5 versus mannitol 15% in the treatment of increased intracranial pressure in neurosurgical patients – a randomized clinical trial [ISRCTN62699180]

Figure 3

Box-and-whisker plots of the mean CPP. Data are plotted within the first hour after administration of 7.2% NaCl/HES 200/0.5 (HS) or mannitol (M). The CPP increases significantly compared with the start of treatment († p < 0.0001). After 30 min and 60 min, a statistically significant difference was seen between the two treatment regimes (p < 0.01). CPP, cerebral perfusion pressure.
