Magnesium Sulfate as an Adjuvant to Caudal Bupivacaine in Lower Abdominal Surgeries in Paediatrics.

Summary

Intravenous magnesium has been studied in pediatrics to reduce agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy, reduce intraoperative rocuronium requirements, prevent laryngospasm and coughing after removal of the endotracheal tube in patients undergoing adenotonsillectomy. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of intravenous magnesium sulfate on postoperative pain management in paediatrics and to compare it with its effect when administered caudally in children undergoing lower abdominal surgeries.
