About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preemptive Magnesium Sulfate on Postoperative Pain in Patients Undergoing Mastectomy

Breast cancer is the most diagnosed type of cancer in women in Turkey and in the world. According to the World Health Organization data, the rate of newly diagnosed breast cancer was reported as 11.6% in 20181. Acute postoperative pain occurs in 40% of patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer2. In the early postoperative period, opioids are commonly used analgesics in the treatment of pain, but they have various side effects such as gastrointestinal, urinary and respiratory symptoms3. Non-opioid analgesics can be used to reduce opioid use and thus limit its side effects. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is an N-Methyl D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist that has been used for postoperative analgesia and reducing both the duration and intensity of pain by preventing central sensitization in response to peripheral painful stimulus4-9. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of MgSO4 in patients who were scheduled for mastectomy with the diagnosis of breast cancer. The secondary aim of our study is to evaluate the changes in perioperative vital signs that may occur due to MgSO4.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative pain was measured and recorded with the Verbal Numeric Rating Scale

    Postoperative pain was measured and recorded with the Verbal Numeric Rating Scale (VNRS) (0 no pain-10 very pain).

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Magnesium Sulfate and normal saline isotonic solution in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Pamukkale University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative pain was measured and recorded with the Verbal Numeric Rating Scale (time frame: 24 hours). 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 30 May 2023.
