Abstract :

Patients with pseudocholinesterase deficiency can experience prolonged neuromuscular blockade if given succinylcholine or certain other drugs. We describe the case of a patient with a reported pseudocholinesterase deficiency requiring emergent prehospital airway management. Knowledge of the reported condition influenced airway management decisions.
