Artificial Neural Network Model Estimating the Initial Dose of Propofol Used in General Anesthesia

Abstract

The right dosing of drugs has a pivotal role in anaesthesia. In preoperative anaesthesia, an anaesthesiologist, calculates the doses of hypnotic drugs according to the patient's factors and implements them in the clinical setting in the form of an initial and continuation dose. In this study, the initial dose of a hypnotic agent propofol (mg) was estimated using multilayer feed forward artificial neural network (MNN) structure, assuming no premedication or additional medication was used. The factors of age (year), weight (kg), height (m) and concomitant diseases have constituted the inputs of the proposed predictive network. Data set for this study consists of 299 patient samples and was created by expert anaesthesiologists. Many ANN models designed with different hyperparameters were tested to find the best estimator, and the results were recorded. According to the obtained results, the best estimator has estimated the initial dose of propofol with success rates over 92%. Thanks to this model, it has been proven that the initial doses of potentially anaesthetic drugs can be calculated by ANN, so that the application can be considered as an aid to anaesthesiologists.
