Figure 2From: Mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) in shock: a valuable echocardiographic parameter in intensive care patients Boxplots of daily measurements show that MAPSE is significantly lower in non-survivors (grey) of 28-day mortality compared to survivors (white) in most days (day 1 p=0.028, day 2 p=0.003, day 3 p=0.060, day 4 p= 0.036, day 5 p=0.026, day 6 p=0.017, day 7 p=0.075). ° Value and case number within 1.5 boxplot length (SPSS 18.0).Back to article page
