BChE activity reflects level of norepinephrine support on day 7 following ICU. Scatterplots represent the BChE activity in cardiocirculatory compromised COVID-19 patients with need for higher doses of norepinephrine (>0.3 µg/kg/min, n = 6) compared to critically ill COVID-19 patients with low-dose norepinephrine therapy (<0.3 µg/kg/min, n = 42) (BChE activity: 530 U/l (373–1.275) vs. 1.113 U/L (871–1.496)). * p < 0.05 Mann–Whitney U-Test).
