Abstract

This paper introduces a simplified linear interaction model between two drugs, namely Propofol and Remifentanil, which will be used in a model based predictive control algorithm for (nonlinear) automatic induction and regulation of DOA. Depth of anesthesia (DOA) is evaluated by means of the Bispectral index (BIS). The simulation tests are performed on a set of 24 virtually generated realistic patient models. The results are promising and the performance of the controller shows a high-efficiency, optimal dosage of the two drugs in order to achieve the desired BIS reference.
