The effect of altered cerebral blood flow on the cerebral kinetics of thiopental and propofol in sheep

RN Upton, GL Ludbrook, C Grant… - The Journal of the …, 2000 - pubs.asahq.org
Background Thiopental and propofol are highly lipid-soluble, and their entry into the brain
often is assumed to be limited by cerebral blood flow rather than by a diffusion barrier …

Relationships between steady state blood concentrations and cardiac output during intravenous infusions

RN Upton - Biopharmaceutics & drug disposition, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
The blood concentration of a drug at steady state can be calculated from the ratio of infusion
rate over the total body drug clearance. When the blood is assumed to be a homogenous …
