Claim One:
1. A method of assisting a human expert in reducing predictable variations in the depth of anesthesia during the administration of a medical anesthesia drug to a patient, the method comprising the step of solving: y = f p ⁡ ( x ) = C 1 ⁢ x x 1 ⁢ Φ 1 ⁡ ( x ) + C 2 ⁢ x x 2 ⁢ Φ 2 ⁡ ( x ) + C 3 ⁢ x x 3 ⁢ Φ 3 ⁡ ( x ) where the coefficients C 1 , C 2 , C 3 , as well as the time periods τ p (initial time delay after drug infusion) and T p (time constant representing speed of response) are initiated by assessment of a human expert.
