Table 1 Kinetic parameter values. Population kinetic parameters for infused Ringer’s solution in 160 conscious and anesthetized subjects. Typical values (tv) for the fixed parameters for all subjects, followed by individual-specific covariates are shown

From: Accelerated lymph flow from infusion of crystalloid fluid during general anesthesia

  1. CI = confidence interval. CV% = coefficient of variation (inter-individual)
  2. P-values denote strengthening of the model for each added covariate. Covariate models: Power = MAP and body weight; Linear = Hb-Alb dilution difference; Exponential = the others.
