Table 2 Median and range of arterial (a) and venous (v) blood parameters (bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻), base excess (BE), sodium (Na⁺), potassium (K⁺), calcium (Ca²⁺), chloride (Cl⁻), and glucose) at 0, 60, 120, 180, and 240 min perfusion, p-values are reported if arterial and venous blood parameters are significantly different
