Change in the rate of memory by PPF sedation.

In task 3, 4 and 5, the rate of memory decreased significantly during sedation. However, from task 7 to task 17, 10 minutes after the end of PPF infusion it did not show significant changes for 60 minutes.

*: p < 0.05 vs control.

Mean values ± SD, n  =  7.

Change in the rate of memory by DEX sedation.

There were significant decreases of rate of memory in the tasks during sedation and recovery period for over 60 minutes after the end of DEX infusion.

*: p < 0.05 vs control.

Mean values ± SD, n  =  7.

Box plots of hemodynamic variables during the first 12 postoperative hours, for group H & M.

HR: Heart rate, SBP: Systolic blood pressure, DBP: Diastolic blood pressure.

P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant (repeated measures ANOVA, Student-Newman-Keuls test).
