Miller, R. Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. Dept. of Anesthesiology & Critical Care. Intravenous anesthesia Dissertations -- Medicine Thesis (Ph.D.)__University of Stellenbosch, 1993. The anaesthetic, propofol and the opioid, alfentanil have pharmacokinetic profiles suitable for total intravenous anaesthesia. The hypothesis states that they are cardiovascular depressants and that their administration causes haemodynamic instability. A review of the literature is presented wherein the pharmacokinetics and the cardiovascular pharmacodynarnics of the drugs are amplified. Pig pharmacokinetic models for propofol and alfentanil, were determined by applying curve-fitting computer programs to measured post-infusion concentrations and were used by computer-controlled infusions to establish predicted drug concentrations during haemodynamic studies.
