To the Editor: The duration of the action of remifentanil is clearly much shorter than that of fentanyl. The distribution volume of remifentanil is much smaller than that of fentanyl and the elimination half-life of remifentanil is extremely short compared with that of fentanyl [1, 2]. Bolus injection of fentanyl can be used for relief from pain caused by an invasive procedure such as epidural catheterization. Two micrograms per kilogram of fentanyl is considered to be safe based on some reports [3, 4]. If that dose of fentanyl is administered to a patient (assumed to be a 50-year-old female with a height of 150 cm and weight of 50 kg) for pharmacokinetic (PK) simulation, the effect-site concentration (ESC) calculated using the pharmacokinetic model TIVA Trainer version 8 (http://www. eurosiva. org; calculation interval of 1 s) with Shafer’s parameter [1] never reaches 2 ng/mL—which is considered to be the maximum concentration that has no effect on respiration—after bolus injection (Fig. 1). In contrast, if the same dose of remifentanil was used instead of fentanyl, what would happen? PK with Minto’s parameter [2] shows that the ESC of remifentanil can reach 7.08 ng/mL and remains over 2 ng/mL for 7 min and 19 s (Fig. 1). Since the above concentration of remifentanil can easily cause respiratory depression, an accidental injection of remifentanil may cause a critical situation.This occurs because ke0 (the plasma effect-site equilibrium constant) of remifentanil is larger and the rapid distribution volume of remifentanil is smaller than those of fentanyl. Thus, knowledge of PK is required in order to avoid risk even in a simple situation such as the above example, and the bolus injection of 2 μg/kg of remifentanil should not be performed.
