For several years, total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) has demonstrated many advantages that allow consideration of propofol anesthesia as an interesting alternative in pediatric anesthesia. TIVA in children requires calculation and validation of pharmacokinetic (PK) models specifically adapted to the pediatric population. Several PK models based on a 3-compartment approach have been proposed i...
