Target controlled infusion (TCI) of Propofol has been the subject of discussion during its 20 years of use, including the validity of the models that represent the course of the effect, such as: Are the different EEG indexes representative of the effect? Is the reactivity of the EEG index used to build models comparable to each other? What is the real reacting time of each monitor? Is the ke0 influenced by the infusion speed? Is the ke0 or the time to peak effect affected by age? How valid are the current Emax models? Are the induction and wakening simple mirror phenomenon as they are represented in the E max models? This review discusses issues related to the complexity and difficulty in obtaining a representation of the effect, and the lack of agreed definitions to be able to construct representative models of the temporary installation of the effect of Propofol for its use in TCI.
