Figure 1-a and 1-b. Perioperative serum free hemoglobin and haptoglobin
concentrations.
These two figures show the time courses of perioperative serum free hemoglobin (figure
1-a) and haptoglobin (figure 1-b) concentrations at the following 6 time points: 1) after
anesthesia induction (Pre), 2) 1 hour after initiation of CPB (CPB1hr), 3) 2 hours after
initiation of CPB (CPB2hr), 4) 30 minutes after weaning from CPB (pCPB0.5hr), 5) 2
hours after weaning from CPB (pCPB2hr), and 6) the morning of postoperative day 1
(POD 1).
Figure 2. Comparisons of perioperative serum free hemoglobin concentrations in patients
with and those without AKI.
This figure shows a comparison of perioperative serum free hemoglobin concentrations
in patients with and those without AKI at the following 6 time points: 1) after anesthesia
induction (Pre), 2) 1 hour after initiation of CPB (CPB1hr), 3) 2 hours after initiation of
CPB (CPB2hr), 4) 30 minutes after weaning from CPB (pCPB0.5hr), 5) 2 hours after
weaning from CPB (pCPB2hr), and 6) the morning of postoperative day 1 (POD 1). White
box plots indicate the values for patients without AKI and black box plots indicate the
values for patients with AKI. * means p<0.05.
