Abstract: In this work we make use of knowledge from clinical practice to deliver a trusted environment for feedback control of co-administration of two drugs to induce depth of hypnosis during general anesthesia. The clinical data we have provides valuable insight into the ratio used to determine the Propofol and Remifentanil infusion rates by means of specifying their corresponding effect site concentrations. A feedback closed loop with a fixed parameter PID controller tuned on population dynamics is used. To account the strong variations in gain of the system (patient) we propose an online identification of the dose-effect response from clinical data available during clinical protocol. Theoretical analysis is provided to justify the approach and simulations with real data from patient are given to support the theoretical insight. Limitations of this approach are discussed as to justify why ratio based co-administration is used in practice solely during the induction phase of general anesthesia.
