Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Dexmedetomidine

TL;DR: Dexmedetomidine as discussed by the authors is an α2-adrenoceptor agonist with sedative, anxiolytic, sympatholytic, and analgesic-sparing effects, and minimal depression of respiratory function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Closed-loop Controlled Administration of Propofol Using Bispectral Index as the Controlled Variable versus “Standard Practice” Controlled Administration

TL;DR: A closed-loop system for propofol administration using the BIS as a controlled variable together with a model-based controller is clinically acceptable during general anesthesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depth of anaesthesia monitoring: what's available, what's validated and what's next?

TL;DR: Depth of anaesthesia monitors might help to individualize anaesthesia by permitting accurate drug administration against the measured state of arousal of the patient and the avoidance of awareness or excessive anaesthetic depth might result in improved patient outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacokinetic models for propofol—defining and illuminating the devil in the detail

TL;DR: The recently introduced open-target-controlled infusion (TCI) systems can be programmed with any pharmacokinetic model, and allow either plasma- or effect-site targeting, and the Schnider model should always be used in effect- site targeting mode.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Propofol.

TL;DR: An overview of the PK and PD of propofol is provided in order to refresh readers’ knowledge of its clinical applications, while discussing the main avenues of research where significant recent advances have been made.
