Fig. 6From: Controlled arterial hypotension during resection of cerebral arteriovenous malformationsReceiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) of four parameters to predict an early neurological deterioration, i.e. any non-pre-existing neurological deficit. ROC analysis was significant for the three parameters mean intraoperative MABP (p < 0.001), duration of CAH (p = 0.03) as well as for the product of duration and extent of CAH (p = 0.02), but not for the Spetzler-Martin grading (p = 0.10). MABP = mean arterial blood pressure, CAH = controlled arterial hypotension, A = area under the curveBack to article page
