Table 1.

STRIVE Hi dosing data and Ce end-points. Data presented as median [IQR (range)] or n (%). Cpt, predicted plasma-site concentration target; Ce, predicted effect-site concentration; Cptstart, starting Cpt; Cptincrements, incremental increase in Cpt during stepwise induction;. CeLOC, Ce at loss of consciousness; CeDL, Ce at direct laryngoscopy; CeSL, Ce at suspension laryngoscopy; CeMAX, maximum Ce attained; BPM, breaths per minute
