Fig. 2From: Target blood pressure management during cardiopulmonary bypass improves lactate levels after cardiac surgery: a randomized controlled trialBlood lactate level. *Statistically significant (*P < 0.05 **P < 0.01)). Abbreviations: MAP: mean arterial pressure. T0 = before the operation; T1 = at the end of CPB, T2 = at the end of the operation, T3 = 1 h after the operation, T4 = 6 h after the operation, T5 = 24 h after the operationBack to article page
