Monitoring of pulmonary endothelial enzyme function: an animal model for a simplified clinically applicable procedure.

abstract：:No significant change in pseudocholinesterase levels was observed in random specimens of whole blood stored for as long as 30 days. Levels in plasma anticoagulated with heparin or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid declined only slightly. Therefore, massive transfusions do not contraindicate succinylcholine administratio...
