Improving the anesthetic process by a fuzzy rule based medical decision system

作者：

Highlights：

• It is possible to translate heuristic knowledge provided by clinicians into a computer system to automate drug delivery in patients undergoing general anesthesia.

• A two-level computer decision system is proposed in order to separate a supervision level and a control level.

• The proposed system performed satisfactorily in cases considered, maintaining the hypnosis level of the patient in the desired target and showing better performance parameter values than the manual standard procedure.
