Fig 1 (a) Logarithm of estimated λ in prime mixtures (logeλe) plotted against logarithm of measured λ. There were 180 samples, representing the mean λ values of three anaesthetics in 10 mixtures of priming fluids at six temperatures. A direct linear relationship was found between logeλe and logeλm (P<0.05). (b) Differences between logeλm and logeλe in mixtures of priming fluids plotted against corresponding logeλe. The mean difference between logeλm and logeλe (–1.006×10−2) and mean±2 sd (0.201 to –0.221) are shown.

Fig 2 (a) Logarithm of estimated λ in CPB blood (logeλe) are plotted against logarithm of measured λ. There were 360 samples, representing the mean λ values of the three anaesthetics in 20 patients at six temperatures. A direct linear relationship was found between logeλe, and logeλm (P<0.05). (b) Differences between logeλm and logeλe of CPB blood plotted against corresponding logeλe. The mean difference between logeλm and logeλe (–0.115) and mean±2 sd (0.214 to –0.444) are shown.
