Anestesia Venosa Total com Infusão Alvo-Controlada de Remifentanil e Propofol para Ablação de Fibrilação Atrial * Total Intravenous Anesthesia with Target-Controlled Infusion of Remifetanil and Propofol for Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation*

CASE REPORT: This is a 49-year old female weighing 73 kg, 155 cm, and ASA II due to hypertension. The patient was monitored with a 12-lead ECG, pulse oximetry, heart rate, bispectral electroencephalography for BIS measurement, suppression rate (SR), and SEF95, and mean arterial pressure (MAP). Intravenous targetcontrolled infusion (TCI) of propofol with a target of 4 μg.mL-1, intravenous TCI of remifentanil with a target of 3 ng.mL-1, and intravenous bolus of rocuronium 0.2 mg.kg-1 were used for induction of anesthesia. The pharmacokinetic model of propofol described by Marsh was used and incorporated into the propofol PFS pump®. The pharmacokinetic model of remifentanil described by Minto was incorporated into the Alaris PK® infusion pump. Local effector, or biophase, concentrations corresponded to the information obtained from the infusion pumps and represented predictive measurements of the concentrations of both drugs on their sites of action. The concentrations of propofol and remifentanil were regulated according to BIS and MAP, respectively.
