About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Clinical Response to Magnesium Sulfate as an Adjunct in the Anesthesia

Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) has multiple desirable effects in an anesthetic procedure, including modulation of the hemodynamic response to surgical stress, perioperative anesthetic and analgesic effect, potentiation of neuromuscular blockade, and central nervous system depression. MgSO4 is an antagonist of the N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor, therefore it produces an analgesic effect related to the prevention of central sensitization caused by peripheral tissue damage.

Objective. To evaluate the perioperative clinical response to MgSO4 as an adjunct to anesthesia.

Material and method. Randomized, triple-blind clinical trial that will include men and women over 18 years of age, scheduled for surgery under general or regional anesthesia. After accepting and signing the informed consent, all patients will be subjected to the same pre, trans and postoperative protocol and will be assigned to 2 groups according to the intravenous administration of MgSO4 (placebo and MgSO4). A brief preoperative medical history will be taken, a peripheral blood sample will be taken to determine preoperative serum Mg, the clinical effect of MgSO4 on trans and postoperative analgesia (EVAD), hemodynamic stability (blood pressure (BP) and heart rate ( HR)), motor and neuromuscular block time (Bromage and TOF), and recovery time. The presence of adverse reactions to anesthesia (nausea, vomiting, chills, pruritus, urinary retention, arrhythmias, laryngeal or bronchial spasm) and those secondary to the administration of Mg, SO4, as well as the total doses of all drugs used during the perioperative. The data will be analyzed in the SPSS software.

Read the detailed description

The participant selection process will be carried out through direct invitation to patients scheduled for surgery under regional or general anesthesia at the General Hospital of Zone No. 51 of the IMSS, Gómez Palacio, Durango. Explaining what their participation consists of for the subsequent signing of the informed consent letter in case of accepting. Afterwards, according to the type of surgery and scheduled anesthesia, 2 groups will be integrated randomly and blindly for the investigator: one that will receive MgSO4 pre and intraoperatively and another group that will be administered 0.9% NaCl intravenously (placebo). All participants will undergo the same pre, trans and postoperative surgical and anesthetic protocol.

Personal data, background and sociodemographic variables will be collected in a data collection sheet. Subsequently, anthropometric measurements will be made to determine weight, height, body mass index and blood pressure.

Peripheral venous blood samples will be taken in the operating room for the determination of pre and postoperative serum Mg and other analyzes.

Each participant will receive standard and continuous monitoring (electrocardiogram, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, capnography, temperature and TOF) and an intravenous access will be established. The MgSO4 group will receive 30 mg / kg of magnesium sulfate intravenously over a period of 15 minutes before induction of anesthesia and 10 mg / kg / h by continuous intravenous infusion during the operation. The control group (placebo) will receive 0.9% NaCl in the same volume as the study drug.

In procedures under general anesthesia, a standard protocol with propofol 2 mg / kg (IV), fentanyl 2 μg / kg (IV) and cisatracurium 0.2 mg / kg (IV) will be applied. Anesthesia will be maintained with 100% oxygen, and 0.5 to 4 vol% sevoflurane, to achieve a mean alveolar concentration (MAC) of 50%. Maintenance doses of fentanyl will be added to the anesthesia regimen as needed. The maintenance dose of cisatracurium will be administered according to the MNM with TOF. The total doses of the drugs used will be recorded. In cases with neuraxial regional anesthesia, a standard protocol with 10 mg heavy bupivacaine and subarachnoid buprenorphine 60 mcg will be applied.

Hemodynamic parameters will be recorded at baseline (before administration of magnesium sulfate or 0.9% isotonic saline solution and subsequently every 5 minutes during surgery, up to 180 minutes after drug administration.

Low blood pressure during surgery, defined as a mean blood pressure value <50 mmHg, will be treated with a 5 mg bolus of ephedrine given intravenously or norepinephrine by IV infusion for persistent hypotension (this is the standard anesthetic management of variations in hemodynamic stability). Low heart rate during surgery, defined as <50 beats per minute, will be treated with atropine at 10 mcg / kg intravenously.

The time until the MNM with TOF indicates the suitability of the neuromuscular block for intubation will be recorded, and the intubation conditions will be evaluated.

The postoperative analgesic protocol will include ketorolac 30mg IV, tramadol 100mg IV, or lysine clonixinate 100mg in case of allergy to ketorolac. Buprenorphine will be administered subcutaneously at a dose of 2 mcg / kg as rescue analgesia only when necessary.

As an adjunct to anesthesia, dexamethasone 8 mg IV, metoclopramide 10 mg IV, ondansetron 100 mcg / kg and omeprazole 40 mg IV will be administered.

Post-operative pain assessment will be performed by EVAD upon exiting anesthesia and at 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours.

The time elapsed until the first request for additional analgesic by the patient, and the total consumption of postoperative analgesics will be recorded, recording it as morphine equivalents.

All the information about all the drugs administered to the patient during their perioperative stay will be collected.

Episodes of nausea, vomiting, itching, chills, arrhythmias, laryngeal or bronchial spasm will be recorded during and after coming out of anesthesia and at the end of the hospital stay.

Satisfaction in recovery from anesthesia will be assessed at 24 hours by delivering a self-report questionnaire to patients.

Finally, the data will be captured in a database for subsequent statistical analysis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in postoperative analgesia over 24 hours

    Postoperative pain intensity reported by the participant using the visual analog scale after intravenous infusion of magnesium sulfate or placebo (NaCl at 0.9%).

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lilia E Luque-Esparza, Dra. (+528715796441, dra.luque@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in postoperative analgesia over 24 hours (time frame: 15 minutes after coming out of anesthesia, 2, 4, 6 and 24 hours after coming out of anesthesia). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Mar 2023.
