Hemodynamic data.

Hemodynamic data were determined at baseline, after 20 minutes of coronary occlusion (Ischemia), following return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and 3, 7, 13, and 24 hours after ROSC (Mean±SD). HR indicates heart rate; MAP, mean arterial blood pressure; ETco2, end-tidal carbon dioxide, CI, cardiac index is calculated as the ratio of cardiac output/body surface area (body surface area = 0.0734*(body weight in kg)0.656) [36]. Considering the repeated measures factor, statistical significance was considered at a two-sided p value of ≤ 0.007.
