Abstract

[Abstract] In the search for new and more efficient ways to administer drugs, clinicians are turning to engineering tools. The availability of these models to predict physiological variables are a significant factor. A model is set out in this research to predict the EMG (electromyogram) signal during surgery, in patients under general anaesthesia. This prediction hinges on the Bispectral Index™ (BIS) and the infusion rate of the drug propofol. The results of the research are very satisfactory, with error values of less than 0.67 (for a Normalized Mean Squared Error). A hybrid intelligent model is used which combines both clustering and regression algorithms. The resulting model is validated and trained using real data.
