Fig. 2From: Serial assessments of cardiac output and mixed venous oxygen saturation in comatose patients after out-of-hospital cardiac arrestHemodynamic status during 72 h of post-resuscitation intensive care stratified into patients surviving until 365 days and patients deceased at 365 days. p values indicate group difference from ICU admission until 48 h after PAC insertion. Error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. The total amount of pharmacological circulatory support was quantified by the Vasopressor-Inotropic Score (VIS) and was calculated after the formula: Dopamine (µg/kg/min) + dobutamine (µg/kg/min) + 100 × epinephrine (µg/kg/min) + 100 × norepinephrine (µg/kg/min) + milrinone × 10 (µg/kg/min) + 50 × levosimendan (µg/kg/min) + 1000 × vasopressin (U/kg/min). The figures illustrate predicted values based on a mixed models [43]Back to article page
