Effect of normothermia (NT), hypothermia (HT), hemorrhage during normothermia (NT/HS), and hemorrhage during hypothermia (HT/HS) on systemic oxygen saturation (SAT), carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2), oxygen partial pressure (pO2), pH, hemoglobin (Hb), and lactate; data are presented as absolute values, mean ± SE, , versus baseline, versus NT for group HT and versus NT/HV for group HT/HV.
