** For Educational Use Only **
AnestAssist PK/PD is intended for educational use only. It is not FDA approved for clinical use.
Good clinical judgement, training, and experience must be used in evaluating
and interpreting AnestAssist's calculations. Please be aware of the following
limitations:
- AnestAssist
uses mathematical models to estimate drug concentrations and effects.
These models are only simplified approximations, derived from
population studies involving small numbers of subjects who are usually
relatively healthy. Also, there is an intrinsic performance error
between a model's predictions and the the study data it was built from.
This error is usually reported with the results of the study, and can
vary widely from study to study. Because
of intrinisic model performance error, and because your patient may be
unlike the study population, and finally because of
biologic variability among individual patients, AnestAssist's estimates
may be significantly different from any individual patient's actual
values. Please see AnestAssist Scientific Basis for more information regarding models.
- Software, especially
complex software such as AnestAssist, may contain errors not identified
during testing. AnestAssist was carefully tested, and detailed results
published on AnestAssist Testing. However, no testing can be perfect or exhaustive, so errors may remain that may be obvious or non-obvious.
