GasGasGas - TIVA Models for Propofol TCI

Welcome back to Gas, Gas, Gas—the podcast that breaks complex anaesthesia concepts into digestible, high-yield episodes. Today, we’re doing a deep dive into the TIVA Models for Propofol particularly the: Marsh, Schneider, and Eleveld TCI models.

This isn’t just academic—understanding the underpinnings of these models means you can dose more precisely, tailor your anaesthetic plan to the patient in front of you, and avoid the classic pitfalls of blindly trusting a pump. If you’re prepping for the FRCA or just want to master the ‘why’ behind TCI behaviour, you’re in the right place.
