SmartPilot View calculates and predicts the combined effects of used analgesic and hypnotic drugs based on population models. This can facilitate the implementation of a differentiated, individualised and well-balanced dosing regimen for:

• Haemodynamic stability¹²³⁴⁶
• Controlled patient condition during both induction² and maintenance⁴
• Prevention of over-dosage¹²³⁴⁵ that can contribute to reduction of postoperative delirium
• Well-managed recovery (faster awakening)²³⁴⁵⁶

SmartPilot View supports the decision-making⁵ by turning complex pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic calculations into an easy-to-interpret visualisation of:

• Current anaesthesia level and hypnotic-analgesic balance
• 20 minute prediction of the anaesthesia level
• Built-in pre-prediction ("What if..." function) for IV pump rates and anaesthesia device settings that shows what effect a rate change or bolus would have
• Numeric value of anaesthesia level (Noxious Stimulus Response Index - NSRI)

SmartPilot View provides instant access to the status of anaesthesia and the administered drugs throughout the entire surgical procedure to support the intuitive and rapid assessment of the patient's status with:

• Isobole lines on 2D diagram representing areas of probability how patient will react to a defined pain stimulus, and indicating the level of anaesthesia (e.g. TOL 90, TOL 50, TOSS 50, MAC 50)
• History function on the 2D diagram to track the anaesthesia level from the beginning of the case
• Effect-site concentrations displayed as numeric values and trends
• Calculated effect-site concentrations of administered hypnotics, opioids, and muscle relaxants for past (40 minutes), present, and preview (20 minutes) periods
• Optional: Selected vital parameters, including heart rate, blood pressure and CO₂, and BIS

SmartPilot View may help to optimise OR and PACU utilisation times with:

• Bar graph indicator to estimate patient wake-up time
• Individualised drug dosing to reduce risk of overdosing¹²⁵ that may help to mitigate prolonged PACU stays

Based on clinical evidence, SmartPilot View can help to minimise the total amount of consumed drugs²³⁵ to:

• Reduce the environmental impact
• Save costs

The SmartPilot View Trainer (non-medical device) is intended to support training and teaching. It can be used outside of the clinical workplace as well as for educational purposes to:

• Enable case simulations
