Inhalation of a Short-Acting β2-Adrenoreceptor Agonist Induces a Hypercoagulable State in Healthy Subjects.

Catecholamine infusion elicits an increase in clotting factors and this increase has been attributed to stimulation of β2-adrenorecptors (β2AR). Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that inhalation of a short-acting selective β2AR agonist can induce a procoagulant state in healthy individuals.We re...
