 | | The alfentanil concentrations associated with a 50% probability (EC50s) of suppression of responses to intraabdominal surgical stimuli, as determined by logistic regression in the individual patients, were related to corresponding mean blood propofol concentrations by nonlinear regression analysis. |  | | The purpose of this study was to characterize the pharmacodynamic interaction between propofol and alfentanil for several clinically relevant end points. |  | | We conclude that propofol reduces alfentanil requirements for all studied clinical end points. |

 | | At a plasma alfentanil concentration of 100 ng/ml, the increase in pain tolerance compared with baseline was 42.0% for electrical pain, 22.2% for pressure pain, and 21.7% for ice-water pain. |  | | The residual error including intraindividual variation at an alfentanil concentration of 100 ng/ml was 19.4% for electrical pain, 6.1% for pressure pain, and 13.0% for ice-water pain. |  | | The slope of the linear concentration-response curve had an interindividual coefficient of variation of 58.3% in electrical pain, 35.6% in pressure pain, and 60.0% in ice-water pain. |
