Product Overview

AnestAssist™ PK/PD is an educational tool used for understanding and visualizing the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and interactions of commonly used anesthetic drugs.

Anesthesiologists, CRNA's, Veterinarians, and other clinicians involved with anesthesiology, from residents to the very experienced, will find AnestAssist a valuable tool for understanding and designing rational dosing strategies tailored to individual patients.

Mathematical models published by clinical researchers, which take into account patient weight, age and gender, are used to estimate and chart:

• Plasma concentration (IV Drugs)
• Alveolar concentration (Inhaled drugs)
• Effect site concentration
• Probability of effect (including interactions)
• Analgesia: No response to laryngoscopy
• Sedation: OAA/S < 2
• NMB: T1/T0=50%

IV drugs modeled: Propofol, Remifentanil, Fentanyl, Alfentanil, Sufentanil, Dexmedetomidine, Ketamine, Lidocaine, Morphine, Midazolam, Atracurium, Cisatracurium, Rocuronium, and Vecuronium.

Inhaled agents modeled: Sevoflurane, Isoflurane, Desflurane, Enflurane, Halothane, and Nitrous Oxide

Interactions modeled: Propofol, Sevoflurane or Isoflurane with any combination of Remifentanil, Fentanyl, Alfentanil, or Sufentanil.

Users can define and add additional drugs and PK/PD models to the application.

Real-Time Case Capture: Drug entry system facilitates recording drugs administered real-time or retrospectively from intra-operative record. Save to Case Library for later review.

Case Library: Save actual cases or design and add your own cases to the library to record and demonstrate dosing strategies for a variety of patient types and drugs.

AnestAssist runs an enhanced user interface full screen natively on the iPad and in standard mode on the iPhone/iPod. The core functionality is the same on both.
