- Values of cardiac output obtained during positive end expiratory pressure were excluded from this analysis to minimize the impact of differences in time responsiveness between the devices.
- R = coefficient of determination for inter-technologies comparisons; RE = averaged value of relative error (absolute bias/mean); LOA = limits of agreements of the Bland and Altman representation (two × standard deviations of the difference) in L/min; CV = coefficient of variation (two × standard deviation/mean); C&C = percentage of the differences inside the 30% limit of acceptability as suggested by Critchley and Critchley [16].
