Wide awake under anesthesia: Scoline apnoea update [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Journal of Anesthesia and Intensive Therapy, 2016
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) catalyses the hydrolysis of choline esters and thus deactivates muscle relaxants such as succinylcholine and mivacurium. The prolonged neuromuscular blockade following the use of succinylcholine, called scoline apnea, occurs ...
