  1. In the regression model, mean transit time (mTT) or perfusion index (PI) are the dependent variables and macrohemodynamic (mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac index (CI and lactate) and microhemodynamic parameters (resistivity index and calculated creatinine clearance) are the explanatory variables
