Description

Automated Drug Delivery in Anesthesia

Automated Drug Delivery in Anesthesia is a groundbreaking resource that offers an in-depth review of the tools, methods, and innovations surrounding the delivery of anesthesia. This book provides a unique perspective by bridging the gap between academic research and clinical practice, offering both theoretical insights and practical applications. With its interdisciplinary approach, the book draws from fields such as mathematics, physics, biology, and system engineering, applying these concepts to the complex mechanisms of drug delivery in anesthesia.

A key feature of this book is its exploration of the missing element in the traditional anesthesia model: the sensor and model for pain pathway assessment. The authors delve into how the integration of such a model could close the loop in anesthesia regulation, improving precision and patient outcomes. By discussing existing gaps in anesthesia delivery systems, the book provides valuable insights into how future advancements can make the process more efficient and responsive.

The text revisits the standard Target-Controlled Infusion (TCI) anesthesia regulatory loop, offering an updated understanding and application of the process. It goes beyond traditional methods by presenting complementary measurement devices and protocols for the three critical components of anesthesia: hypnosis, analgesia, and neuromuscular blockade. These protocols are essential for ensuring accurate and safe drug delivery, making this book an invaluable guide for anesthesia practitioners seeking to refine their skills.

In addition to revisiting existing tools, Automated Drug Delivery in Anesthesia highlights the link between current and emerging tools in the field, making it a comprehensive reference for the future of automated drug delivery. Whether you’re involved in anesthesia practice, research, or development, this book offers critical insights into the advancements in technology and their potential to shape the future of anesthesia delivery.

With its focus on the integration of sophisticated systems and the regulatory framework for anesthesia, this book is a must-have for those looking to stay at the forefront of this evolving field. It provides both a deep understanding of current practices and a visionary look at the future of automated anesthesia.
