ABSTRACT:
Background: This prospective, randomized double-blinded study was designed to
evaluate the efficacy of preoperative administration of magnesium sulphate in reducing
stress response to laryngoscopy and intubation.
Methods: Fifty adult patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The
magnesium group (25 patients) received 10% magnesium sulphate and the control
group (25 patients) received 0.9% sodium chloride in a double-blind manner. The
magnesium group received magnesium sulphate 50 mg kg_1, administered as a slow
intravenous bolus over a 10 min period before the induction of anesthesia. The same
volume of isotonic saline was administered to the control group. No surgical
manipulations were allowed till the end of magnesium sulphate infusion. Heart rate,
systolic, diastolic, mean blood pressure, ECG changes and oxygen saturation (SPo2)
were measured.
Results: Both groups were comparable as regard to the demographic data. In control
group there was a statistically significant increase in heart rate, systolic, diastolic and
mean arterial blood pressure from the base line, and the maximum increase was at 3
minutes after intubation (p value <0.05). There was statistically significant increase in
heart rate, systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure value in the control
group following laryngoscopy and intubation in comparison to the study group
(p<0.01).
Conclusions: the use of magnesium sulphate attenuates the stress response to
laryngoscopy and intubation.

INTRODUCTION:
Laryngoscopy and intubation
violate the patient's protective airway
reflexes and lead to physiological
changes involving various systems of
the body. Reflex changes in the
cardiovascular system are most marked
after laryngoscopy and intubation and
lead to an average increase in blood
pressure by 40-50% and 20% increase
in heart rate 1.
I.V. magnesium sulphate may
be a good agent for deliberate
hypotension because magnesium intervenes in the activation of membrane
Ca ATPase and Na–K ATPase
involved in transmembrane ion
exchanges during depolarization and
repolarization phases, and thus act as a
stabilizer of cell membrane and
intracytoplasmic organelles2.

Magnesium also exerts its
effects on L-type calcium channels in
membranes and the sarcoplasmic
reticulum. By inhibiting the calcium
activation
dependent
upon
the
sarcoplasmic channel, magnesium
limits the outflow of calcium from the
sarcoplasmic reticulum3. In addition,
magnesium sulphate acts as a vasodilator by increasing the synthesis of
prostacyclin, as well as inhibiting
angiotensin
converting
enzyme

activity . Magnesium sulphate has
small, dose dependent myocardial
depressant effect 5. In another study,
the antagonist effect of magnesium at
N-methyl-D-aspartate
(NMDA)
receptors has led to studies of its
adjuvant effect in perioperative
analgesia6.

and the anaesthetist who was in charge
of the patients during the operation was
unaware of the study medication. The
magnesium group received magnesium
sulphate 50 mg kg_1, administered as a
slow intra-venous bolus over a 10 min
period before the induction of
anesthesia. The same volume of
isotonic saline was administered to the
control group. The patients were
premedicated with glycopyrolate 0.2
mg I.V. administered just before their
entry in the operation theatre. The
patients were induced with thiopentone
sodium 5 mg/kg after 4 minutes of
magnesium
sulphate
infusion.
Succinylcholine was given in a dose of
1-2
mg/kg.
Anaesthesia
was
maintained with nitrous oxide, 50% in
oxygen, Isoflurane 1.5% and vecuronium 0.1mg/kg. No surgical manipulations were allowed till the end of
magnesium sulphate infusion.. An
automatic noninvasive monitor (Nihon
Kohden, Japan) was used to monitor
Heart rate, systolic, diastolic, mean
arterial blood pressure; preoperatively,
before induction of anesthesia, and
every minute for 5 minutes after
laryngoscopy and intubation. ECG
changes and oxygen saturation (SPo2)
were monitored. Any adverse events or
side-effects were recorded during the
perioperative and postoperative periods.
Data were presented as mean ± SD.
Statistical analysis was performed
using the Statistical Package for the
Social
Sciences
(SPSS
10.0).
Differences between the two groups
were subjected to the independent ttest. Paired t-test was applied to
compare values of different observation time points with initial values.
A statistical significance was regarded
to any difference when p value <0.05.
PATIENTS AND METHODS:
This
is
a
prospective
randomized double-blinded clinical
study. After study approval from the
ethical committee of Sohag university
hospital and written informed consents
was taken, fifty patients belonging to
ASA grade I, II were included in the
study informed consent was obtained
from all of them. Exclusion criteria
included cardiovascular dysfunction,
atrioventricular block, hepatic, renal
or known allergy to magnesium
sulphate or other study drugs, diabetic
neuropathy, haematological disorders,
history of neuromuscular disease,
morbid obesity, pregnancy, prior
treatment with calcium channel
blockers, opioids and anticoagulants,
and patients receiving magnesium
supplementation, or drugs known to
have a significant interaction with
NMDAs. The patients were divided
randomly into two groups. The magnesium group (25 patients) received 10%
magnesium sulphate and the control
group (25 patients) received 0.9%
sodium chloride in a double-blind
manner. The solutions were prepared

physical status (table 1). In magnesium
group there was no statistically
significant difference in heart rate,
systolic, diastolic and mean arterial

control group there was a statistically

systolic, diastolic and mean arterial
blood pressure from the base line, and
the maximum increase was at 3
minutes after intubation (p value <0.05)
(figure 1, table 2). There was statis-

tically significant increase in heart rate,
systolic, diastolic and mean arterial
blood pressure value in the control
group following laryngoscopy and
intubation in comparison to the study
group (p<0.01) (figure 1, table 2). The
use of magnesium sulphate infusion
did not result in any kind of
arrhythmias. In patients of control
group undergoing laryngoscopy and
intubation there was 4 patients (16%)
showed ventricular ectopics and 3
patients (12%) showed dropped beats.

systolic blood pressure after intubation.
Plasma concentrations of epinephrine
and norepinephrine were markedly
lower after intubation in the magnesium sulphate -treated group10. Puri et
al. compared hemodynamic changes
during anesthesia induction and
intubation after infusion of magnesium
sulphate or lidocaine. The group
treated with magnesium sulphate
showed a slight increase in mean
arterial pressure (MAP) and systemic
vascular resistance and no decrease in
cardiac output, as compared to the
lidocaine group, with equally good
control of increased heart rate11. In
another study, the group treated with
magnesium sulphate showed a lesser
hypertensive response during induction
compared to placebo, whereas early
reflex tachycardia was not controlled
by magnesium sulphate 12. Ashton et al.
found no increase in arterial pressure
or heart rate and a moderate decrease
of plasma catecholamine concentrations after intubation in a group
treated with magnesium sulphate alone
before intubation13. Also Elsharnouby1
concluded that continuous infusion of
magnesium sulphate led to a useful
reduction in MAP and heart rate14.
DISCUSSION:
Reflex
changes
in
the
cardiovascular system after laryngoscopy and intubation are most marked.
They manifest themselves in the form
of tachycardia, hypertension and
cardiac arrhythmias1, ectopics being
most common. Less commonly we
may encounter bradycardia as a result
of vagal stimulation during laryngoscopy. Therefore, the anesthesiologist
must be careful so as not to over treat
these responses and create more
difficulties then the original problem7.
A wide variety of pharmacological
agents were used to attenuate the
hemodynamic responses like esmolol7,
Fentanyl8, bupre-norphine4, alfentanyl9
etc. In our study, the magnesium group
received
magne-sium
sulphate
50mg/kg as a slow i.v. bolus in a 10
min period before the induction of
anesthesia. This resulted in a steady
and smooth reduction in arterial blood
pressure and reduced heart rate in with
catecholamine release. Magnesium
sulphate reduces this release by the
adrenal medulla and adrenergic nerve
endings. In a similar study, patients
received thiopental and Succinylcholine with or without magnesium
sulphate 60mg/kg at anesthesia
induction. Patients treated with
magnesium sulphate showed a lower
increase of heart rate and
We conclude that the use of
magnesium sulphate attenuates the
