Population Pharmacokinetics of Midazolam Administered by Target Controlled Infusion for Sedation following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting 

Abstract: The intersubject variability and predictability of the three-compartment pharmacokinetic model are similar to those of other intravenous anesthetic drugs. This multicenter study did not confirm previous studies of exceptionally large variability of midazolam pharmacokinetics when used for sedation in intensive care settings.

“…Most of the included studies had careful infusion protocols for both drugs. And although midazolam has a rapid onset time of 2 to 3 minutes, the effect site concentration peaks only after approximately 13 minutes [20,21]. Repeat boluses may be given too early, which can lead to overdosing and hypoxia.…”

“…Bayesian studies on midazolam have been previously reported in the literature, but have been focused on the paediatric population (Burtin et al 1994;Lee et al 1999). A study has been performed in adult intensive care patients during midazolam short-term infusion (Zomorodi et al 1998), but no data are available following long-term midazolam infusion.…”

“…In the structure model selection, to describe the MDZ concentration–time profiles, several pharmacokinetic models (one‐ and two‐compartment models with first‐order elimination, with and without interpatient variability of several parameters) were tested. In previous studies, the pharmacokinetics of MDZ was described using two‐ or three‐compartment models . A one‐compartment model was used to describe the pharmacokinetics of MDZ in this study because the bootstrap confidence intervals of the parameter estimates for the two‐compartment model were near zero (data not shown).…”
