Randomized trial analyzes propofol pharmacokinetics in children, indicating improved accuracy with weight adjustments.

This research aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of propofol in children using various data analysis approaches.
Utilized a standard three-compartment pharmacokinetic model for analysis.
Weight-adjusted volumes and clearances to enhance accuracy.
Explored additional patient covariates and mixed-effects modeling for further improvements.
Weight-adjusting volumes and clearances significantly improved pharmacokinetic accuracy.
Additional covariate adjustments did not enhance model performance further.

Kataria et al. (1994) studied this question.
