Plasma cholinesterase levels of 10 male patients were determined before, during and after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. These levels dropped significantly below the pre-anaesthetic values after commencing anaesthesia. In 6 patients levels returned to pre-anaesthetic values before or on the 2nd postoperative day. This could not be explained in terms of enzymic biosynthesis alone, and it is suggested that postoperative fluid readjustments may play an important role in certain cases.
测定了10例男性患者在体外循环手术前、手术期间和手术后的血浆胆碱酯酶水平。麻醉开始后，这些水平显著低于麻醉前的值。6例患者的水平在术后第2天或之前恢复到麻醉前的值。这不能仅用酶的生物合成来解释，提示术后液体重新调整在某些情况下可能起重要作用。
