Volumetric and End-Tidal Capnography for the Detection of Cardiac Output Changes in Mechanically Ventilated Patients Early after Open Heart Surgery

<div>Lineplot. Individual (grey) and mean (black) values with 95% confidence intervals for CO, VtCO<sub>2</sub>, and EtCO<sub>2</sub> before, during, and after interventions. CO = cardiac output; EtCO<sub>2</sub> = end-tidal carbon dioxide; VtCO<sub>2</sub> = exhaled carbon dioxide per tidal volume; BL = baseline; RVP = right ventricular pacing; PLR = passive leg raise.</div>
