Obesity Does Not Affect Propofol Pharmacokinetics During Hypothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass

摘要

Objective: Because of the lack of data regarding the impact of obesity on propofol pharmacokinetics in patients undergoing cardiac surgery using hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), the authors sought to explore propofol pharmacokinetics and develop a predictive pharmacokinetic model that characterizes and predicts propofol pharmacokinetics in this population.
