Fig 1 LF/HF. LF/HF: low to high frequency; BL: baseline measurement of the awake patient; induction: measurement after induction of anaesthesia, all patients anaesthetized with TIVA; 5 min prior to ACC: measurement 5 min before abdominal aortic cross-clamping; 5 min post ACC: measurement 5 min after abdominal aortic cross-clamping; 5 min post ADC: 5 min after abdominal aortic declamping; last three events: end-expiratory xenon concentration 60 (5)%. *Significant difference between groups; #significant difference within group between different events, P<0.05.
