  1. Animals were ventilated with inspiratory oxygen fraction of 0.5 (group A), 0.21 (group B) or 0 (group C). Blood was withdrawn for analysis at baseline and every 30 min after commencing the V-A ECMO. Animals of group C presented a lactate induced acidosis, as well as reduced pO2 and increased pCO2 levels. Data are shown as median (with 25th and 75th percentile). Asterisks, rhombus and crosses display the degree of statistical significance: A vs. C: *p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001; B vs. C: #p < 0.05; ##p < 0.01; ###p < 0.001; A vs B: +p < 0.05 ++p < 0.01
