Popis: |
Conventional compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis may provide inaccurate prediction of drug concentrations after rapid i.v. administration. To examine this, compartment and effect compartment analysis was applied to measured arterial and brain concentrations of propofol in sheep after i.v. administration at a range of doses and dose rates. Although arterial and brain concentrations were reasonably well fitted to compartmental and effect compartment models for individual doses and dose rates, the structure and parameters of all models differed with changes in both dose and rate of administration. There were large discrepancies between predicted and measured arterial and brain concentrations when these models were used to predict drug concentrations across doses and dose rates. These data support the limitations of this type of modeling in the setting of rapid propofol administration. |
