Data: concentrations at times $0, 1, \ldots 15$, from 6 patients who received each 100 mg at time $t=0$ (bolus intravenous):


Goal of modelling: describe the variability of the data (structural, intra $\&$ inter variabilities) using a statistical model.


Classical individual approach: derive a model for a unique individual:

\begin{itemize} * Predicted concentration at time '"`UNIQ-MathJax5-QINU`"': \begin{equation} f(t ; V,k) = \frac{D}{V} \ e^{-k \, t} \end{equation}

  • Observed concentration at time $t_j$, $j=1, 2, \ldots, 15$:

\begin{equation} y_j = f(t_j ; V,k) + \varepsilon_j \end{equation}


Observed concentrations from individual 1 and predicted concentration profile obtained with $V=10.5$ and $k=0.279$:
