Official title
Abbreviated Post-partum Magnesium Sulfate Seizure Prophylaxis in Preeclampsia: A Comparison of 12 and 24 Hour Regimens
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Magnesium sulfate is used for seizure prophylaxis in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. There is debate as to how long to continue this therapy after delivery of the pregnancy. Different schemes have been offered to shorten the exposure to magnesium sulfate after delivery, with little data. We seek to investigate the effect of shortened magnesium sulfate therapy on the post-partum recovery phase of mild preeclampsia. Our hypothesis was that shortened therapy (12 hours versus the traditional 24 hours post-partum) has no effect on disease course, and will result in significantly shorter exposure to magnesium sulfate.
