View clinical trials related to Magnesium Sulfate.
Filter by:Magnesium sulfate has been applied in various situations due to actual or potential benefits related to neuroprotection, treatment of eclampsia/pre-eclampsia, arterial hypertension, adrenergic reflex under laryngoscopy/intubation and, shivering, nausea and vomiting, among others. In anesthesia it has been useful as an analgesic adjuvant; however, the method to calculate the dose of magnesium sulfate in obese population is unclear. The objective of this project is to compare two methods of dose calculation based either on the real weight or corrected ideal weight.
Arthroscopic meniscus surgeries are the most frequent orthopedic procedures. The objective of the study is to compare the effects of intraarticular local anesthetic and adjuvant (dexmedetomidine vs magnesium) combinations in postoperative pain and analgesic requirement. The investigators' hypothesis is adjuvants added to the local anesthetics decreases the total local anesthetic dose, provides more effective pain relief according to local anesthetic only, and decreases the postoperative systemic non-steroidal analgesic and opioid doses.
With ongoing advancements in healthcare leading to prolonged life expectancy, orthopedic surgeries are increasingly performed in elderly patients. Total knee arthroplasty, in particular, has been increasing with the growing demand for improved mobility and quality of life. Total knee arthroplasty is performed on patients with advanced and painful osteoarthritis of the knees, but it can result in moderate to severe postoperative pain during the recovery period. To relieve anxiety or stress during surgery under regional anesthesia, sedation can be provided. Dexmedetomidine is a sedative-analgesic agent acting as α2-adrenergic receptor agonist, and its analgesic effect has been well established in various procedures or surgeries. Magnesium has been reported to produce important analgesic effects including the suppression of neuropathic pain, potentiation of morphine analgesia, and attenuation of morphine tolerance. Although the exact mechanism is not yet fully understood, the analgesic properties of magnesium are believed to stem from regulation of calcium influx into the cell and antagonism of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the central nervous system. In this study, investigators will evaluate the reducing effect of magnesium on the post-total knee arthroplasty pain in patients sedated with dexmedetomidine under spinal anesthesia.
It is a prospective, comparative, randomized, double-blind clinical trial whose hypothesis is that pre-treatment with magnesium sulfate, due to its action at the neuromuscular junction,potentiate the duration of deep neuromuscular block following rocuronium curarization in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Magnesium sulphate has gained prominence as an adjuvant drug in anesthesia. Its use is associated with potentiation of neuromuscular blockade among other functions. The deep neuromuscular block is defined as the one obtained by the absence of response to the sequence of four Stimuli and the presence of one or more simple stimuli in post-tetanic counts . There is no literature description of the role of magnesium sulphate in Duration of the deep neuromuscular block obtained after the muscle relaxation of patients with rocuronium This study is justified because extending the clinical duration of neuromuscular blockers may translate into gains for surgeries that require deep and long-lasting muscle relaxation as in laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. This block allows lower inflation pressures of the pneumoperitoneum to be obtained, as a result, there is a lower inflammatory and cardiorespiratory repercussion for the patient
