About this study

Official title: The Effect of Prophylactic Magnesium Use in Pregnant Women on Reversal of Neuromuscular Block With Sugammadex:Evaluation With TOF

Magnesium therapy used for seizure prophylaxis in patients with preeclampsia. Magnesium has been shown to prolong the effect of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) and neostigmine used to reverse the effect of NMBA in general anesthesia . In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate time from sugammadex injection to Train-of-four ratio 0.9 who receieved magnesium therapy in reversing the effect of neuromuscular blocking agent during the recovery period and the relationship between magnesium level and duration of action of sugammadex

Read the detailed description

Rapid-onset and short-acting agents should be preferred in induction, and full induction doses should be applied since they do not receive premedication and increased volume of distribution. Rapid serial induction and intubation should be performed in pregnancies greater than 20 weeks due to the risk of aspiration. Magnesium potentiates and prolongs the effect of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents. It is recommended that the TOF value be between 0 and 2 for adequate muscle relaxation in cesarean section anesthesia. In anesthesia induction; thiopental 3-6mg/kg, rocuronium 1mg/kg, and fentanyl 1mcg/kg and dormicum 2mg will administered after the baby birth. Sevoflurane 2-3% and 50% oxygen + 50% air are used for maintenance. If TOF is 0, sugammadex 4mg/kg will be administered to reverse the effect of the muscle relaxant.A blood sample will be taken to measure simultaneous calcium and magnesium values. Patients with a TOF ≥0.9 (gold standard for extubation) or patients will be clinically evaluated and the decision to extubate will be made.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • pregnant women taking magnesiumDrug

    Also called magnesium level and sugammadex

    The patient group who received magnesium as a 4-6 g loading and 2-3 g/h maintenance dose to prevent convulsions in preeclampsia. Pregnant will be operated under general anesthesia. Sugammadex 4mg/kg will be administered when TOF 0 response is seen at the end of surgery. The time from TOF 0 to TOF 0.9 will be recorded. Magnesium and calcium levels in the blood will be studied.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Also called magnesium level and sugammadex

    Pregnant women who do not receive magnesium therapy and who will be operated under general anesthesia. Sugammadex 4mg/kg will be administered when TOF 0 response is seen at the end of surgery. The time from TOF 0 to TOF 0.9 will be recorded. Magnesium and calcium levels in the blood will be studied.

Model description
A total of 30 pregnant women, who are taking magnesium and not taking magnesium, will be included in the study to be taken by cesarean section under general anesthesia.At the end of surgery, whether sugammadex reverses the effect of NMBA will be evaluated. The time up to TOF 0.9 will be recorded.A blood sample will be taken to measure simultaneous calcium and magnesium values.
