Total

Data from each patient are shown as absolute values. Data of all patients (Total) are shown as mean ± SD. PBW (Kg): predicted body weight. Diagnostics: CABG: coronary artery bypass grafting; MVP: mitral valve replacement. SOFA score: Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score. VT: tidal volume (mL); PEEP: positive end-expiratory pressure (cmH2O); Ppt 0 and Ppt 1: plateau pressure at 0 and 12 hours, respectively, (cmH2O). FL: fluid loading (mL).
