Point of Care Testing of Cholinesterase Activity During Burn- and Polytrauma

Germany85 participantsStarted 2016-02

Plain-language summary

Goal of this study is to measure serum cholinesterase activity in patients with traumatic and/or burns injury admitted to the emergency room by using point-of- care-test system (POCT). Serum cholinesterase activity, measured using POCT system, might play an important role in the early diagnosis and prediction of patient outcome in trauma-induced systemic inflammation.
