|December 1, 1986
Abstract:
Simulations based on physiologic modeling have been used for over twenty years to clarify the pharmacokinetics of inhaled anesthetics. We describe ANSIM, an anesthesia simulator for the IBM PC. ANSIM uses established modeling techniques to create a life-like anesthesia simulator. ANSIM is useful as an educational tool for demonstrating classic concepts of uptake and distribution of inhaled anesthetics.
