    Comparison of the good and poor neurological outcome groups with respect to rSO2, BE and lactate (A) rSO2, (B) BE, (C) Lactate. Open circles represent patients with good neurological outcome, and closed circles represent those with poor neurological outcome. Data are expressed as mean (standard deviation) (the Mann–Whitney test). rSO2, regional cerebral oxygen saturation; BE, base excess.
