I have a long standing interest in TIVA in paediatrics and was a co-author of the original article underpinning the “Diprifusor” software package for adults and the “Paedfusor” for children (the “Marsh” model). I am currently researching TCI propofol 2% in infants under age 3 years and effect-site targetting of propofol in children. I also hope to develop patient-controlled sedation technology for paediatric patients.
