Effect of Administering Intravenous Magnesium Sulfate on Fetal Cardiotocography and Neonatal Outcome in Preeclamptic Patients

July 31, 2017 updated by: Ahmed Maged, Cairo University

Effect of Administering Intravenous Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO4•7H2O) on Fetal Cardiotocography and Neonatal Outcome in Preeclamptic Patients in 3rd Trimester of Pregnancy

Admission CTG for 20 minutes Settings on a CTG machine was standardised to enable a consistent approach of interpretation of traces. Paper speed of 3cm per minute will be adopted. Maternal heart rate was recorded and noted on CTG. Following birth date, time and mode of delivery will be labelled on CTG.

Magnesium sulphate was administered by continuous intravenous infusion according to our hospital protocol as follows:

  • Loading dose: 4-6 gm of magnesium sulphate diluted in 100 mL of IV fluid administered over 15-20 min.
  • Maintenance dose: 2 gm/hr in 100 mL of IV infusion to be continued for 24 hours after delivery.

Another 20 minutes CTG strip will be performed 20 minutes after administration of IV loading MgSO4, 7H2O and thus ensuring that MgSO4 has reached peak serum levels

Detailed Description

Admission CTG:

Admission CTG will be performed for 20 minutes

I-Settings:

  1. Settings on a CTG machine will be standardised to enable a consistent approach of interpretation of traces.
  2. Paper speed of 3cm per minute will be adopted.
  3. CTGs will be labelled with mother's name, hospital number.
  4. Date and time settings on machines will be labelled at commencement of tracing.
  5. Maternal heart rate will be recorded and noted on CTG.
  6. Following birth date, time and mode of delivery will be labelled on CTG.

Magnesium Sulphate hepatahydrate administration:

Magnesium sulphate will be administered by continuous intravenous infusion according to our hospital protocol as follows:

  • Loading dose: 4-6 gm of magnesium sulphate diluted in 100 mL of IV fluid administered over 15-20 min.
  • Maintenance dose: 2 gm/hr in 100 mL of IV infusion to be continued for 24 hours after delivery.

  • Magnesium toxicity was monitored by hourly assessment of:

    1. Patellar reflexes should be present.
    2. Respiratory rate not < 16/min.
    3. Urine output not < 100ml / hr. Another 20 minutes CTG strip will be performed 20 minutes after administration of IV loading MgSO4, 7H2O and thus ensuring that MgSO4 has reached peak serum levels

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 36 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Pregnant Women in the third trimester.
  2. Severely preeclamptic patients.
  3. Singleton Pregnancy.
  4. Patients with normal admission CTG

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Evidence of fetal anomalies on scan.
