Tracheal intubation after induction of anaesthesia with propofol, alfentanil and i.v. lignocaine.

abstract：:Arterial pressure is still one of the most important measures in estimating the required dose of inhaled anaesthetics. It is measured easily and reacts rapidly which makes it suitable as a variable for feedback control of depth of anaesthesia. Fuzzy logic, a novel approach to feedback control, was used to control arte...
