Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Anesthesia Model Incorporating psi-Caputo Fractional Derivatives [PDF]
Computers in Biology and Medicine 167 (2023), Art. 107679, 9 pp, 2023 We present a novel Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model for the induction phase of anesthesia, incorporating the $\psi$-Caputo fractional derivative. By employing the Picard iterative process, we derive a solution for a nonhomogeneous $\psi$-Caputo fractional system to characterize the dynamical behavior of the drugs distribution within a ...
