  1. Mean values are expressed as mean ± SD. Mean values of haemodynamic parameters measured using the PA catheter and the LV PV admittance catheter after 120 min of each infusion. Change compared with control is the development in each outcome during lactate infusion compared with control infusion. Bold values indicate p < 0.05
  2. CO cardiac output, HR heart rate, SV stroke volume, SvO2 mixed venous saturation, P(v-a)CO2 veno-arterial carbon dioxide difference, MAP mean arterial pressure, mPAP mean pulmonary artery pressure, RAP right atrium pressure, PAWP pulmonary artery wedge pressure, SVR systemic vascular resistance, PVR pulmonary vascular resistance, Ea arterial elastance, Ees end systolic elastance (the slope of the end systolic pressure–volume relationship [ESPVR]), ESV end systolic volume, EDV end diastolic volume, ESP end systolic pressure, EDP end diastolic pressure, Pmax maximum pressure, EF ejection fraction, dP/dtmax peak dP/dt, EDPVR end diastolic pressure–volume relationship, PVA pressure–volume area
