Abstract
Summary Norms have been established for the volume, bicarbonate, and amylase responses to a standardized commercially available preparation of secretin. A study of the data has yielded evidence for the use of an 80-minute collection period and for the inclusion of enzyme determinations in the clinical application of the procedure. Body weight adjustment of the values for total volume of secretion and total quantity of amylase results in a marked decrease in the scatter of the data, and therefore, narrowing of the range of normalcy. For this reason, volume and enzyme data should be reduced to a per kilogram basis.
