| Resumo: | Objective: Part II of this research study is concerned with the development of a closed-loop simulation linking the patient model as well as the fuzzy relational classifier already introduced in Part I with a control algorithm. The overall architecture is in fact a system advisor, which provides information to the anaesthetist about the adequate infusion-rates of propofol and remifentanil simultaneously. Methods and material: The developed fuzzy multivariable controller includes three rule-bases and takes into account the synergetic interactions between the above drugs and uses such knowledge to achieve rapidly the desired depth of anaesthesia (DOA) level. Results: The result of the study is a closed-loop control scheme, which adjusts efficiently the infusion-rates of two drugs in response to DOA changes. This controller can either be used in an advisory mode or closed-loop feedback mode in the operating theatre during surgery. Conclusion: It is hoped that this control scheme coupled with the patient model presented in Part I of this study will be used routinely in the operating theatre in the very near future. |
