Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Model of Propofol in Children

Summary

By measuring plasmatic concentration of propofol at different intervals during surgery of children aged 1 to 12 years old and measuring Bispectral Index (BIS) as a surrogate for cerebral activity, the investigators aim to create a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model of propofol for children.
