Magnesium sulfate asthma

Languages ium sulfate for treating exacerbations of acute asthma in the emergency an asthma attack, the airways (passages to the lungs) narrow from muscle spasms and swelling (inflammation). Magnesium sulfate is a drug that can also affect muscles, and may reduce inflammation as well. The review of trials found that intravenous magnesium sulfate in addition to bronchodilators seems to be safe and beneficial for people with severe asthma attacks, or those for whom bronchodilators are not s' conclusions:Current evidence does not support routine use of intravenous magnesium sulfate in all patients with acute asthma presenting to the emergency department. Magnesium sulfate appears to be safe and beneficial in patients who present with severe acute the full abstract... Treatment of acute asthma is based on rapid reversal of bronchospasm and arresting airway inflammation. There is some evidence that intravenous magnesium can provide additional bronchodilation when given in conjunction with standard bronchodilating agents and corticosteroids. Objectives:  to examine the effect of additional intravenous magnesium sulfate in patients with acute asthma managed in the emergency department. Studies were included if patients presented with acute asthma and were treated with iv magnesium sulfate versus placebo. Patients receiving magnesium sulfate demonstrated non-significant improvements in peak expiratory flow rates when all studies were pooled (weighted mean difference: 29.

Enous magnesium sulfate for treating adults with acute asthma in the emergency km1, kirtchuk l, michell information1population health research institute, st george's, university of london, cranmer terrace, london, uk, sw17 ctbackground: asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterised by airways inflammation, constriction of airway smooth muscle and structural alteration of the airways that is at least partially reversible. Exacerbations of asthma can be life threatening and place a significant burden on healthcare services. Various guidelines have been published to inform management personnel in the acute setting; several include the use of a single bolus of intravenous magnesium sulfate (iv mgso4) in cases that do not respond to first-line treatment. However, the effectiveness of this approach remains unclear, particularly in less severe ives: to assess the safety and efficacy of iv mgso4 in adults treated for acute asthma in the emergency methods: we identified trials from the cochrane airways review group specialised register (cagr) up to 2 may 2014. We also searched and reference lists of other reviews, and we contacted trial authors to ask for additional ion criteria: we included randomised controlled trials (rcts) of adults treated in the emergency department (ed) for exacerbations of asthma if they compared any dose of iv mgso4 with collection and analysis: all review authors screened titles and abstracts for inclusion, and at least two review authors independently extracted study characteristics, risk of bias and numerical data.

Unpublished data and studies at high risk of bias for blinding were removed from the main analysis in sensitivity results: fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria, randomly assigning 2313 people with acute asthma to the comparisons of interest in this studies were double-blinded trials comparing a single infusion of 1. G or 2 g iv mgso4 over 15 to 30 minutes reduces hospital admissions and improves lung function in adults with acute asthma who have not responded sufficiently to oxygen, nebulised short-acting beta2-agonists and iv corticosteroids.

Sudden severe exacerbations or acute attacks of asthma may be unpredictable and life threatening; many occur in patients with severe asthma, but patients with mild disease are also at risk. Acute asthma often develops slowly over several hours, meaning that there is often sufficient time for therapeutic intervention to prevent hospital admissions. Despite this, there were 54,300 emergency hospital admissions for acute asthma in the uk in the 12 months to may has been a lack of recent studies of the treatment of adults with acute severe asthma, with the exception of those evaluating the effects of magnesium sulfate. Magnesium sulfate is an airway smooth muscle relaxant that has been used as a bronchodilator in patients with acute asthma in conjunction with standard therapy. Its safety and efficacy have not previously been confirmed, and its use has been considered retation of the studies of inhaled and intravenous magnesium sulfate in acute asthma in adults is hindered by wide variations in study methods. The use of systemic corticosteroids, nebulised beta2 agonists, and additional nebulised ipratropium is widely considered by clinicians to provide optimum treatment; and we have evaluated the evidence for magnesium as an additional treatment rather than an alternative bronchodilator.

Some studies have suggested that magnesium treatment, particularly via the intravenous route, has a particular benefit in patients who present with severe features but, again, interpretation of the data here is difficult due to inconsistencies in the definition and categorisation of severity. Furthermore, many studies exclude patients with life-threatening asthma, making it difficult to generalise the findings to this patient population. This is problematic because, outside of clinical trials, it is often those patients presenting with life-threatening features who are considered for magnesium therapy when standard treatment regimens fail to control the disease. Additional limitations in the available evidence relate to differences in the dose, route, and precise method of administration of magnesium; and it remains possible that alternative dose regimens may have different effects. The findings of this overview are confined to acute asthma in adults; there appears to be a differential benefit from intravenous magnesium in children, and paediatric studies are not considered in this and appraisal update literature search for this overview was carried out from the date of the last search, april 2010, to november 2014.

Systematically reviewed interventions in adults (acute): magnesium sulfate uction: about 10% of adults have suffered an attack of asthma, and up to 5% of these have severe disease that responds poorly to treatment. This overview does not endorse or follow any particular protocol, but presents the evidence about a specific intervention, magnesium sulfate.

Methods and outcomes: we conducted a systematic overview, aiming to answer the following clinical question: what are the effects of magnesium sulfate for acute asthma? Conclusions: in this systematic overview, we categorised the efficacy for two comparisons based on information about the effectiveness and safety of magnesium sulfate (iv) versus placebo and magnesium sulfate (nebulised) plus short-acting beta2 agonists (inhaled) versus short-acting beta2 agonists (inhaled) rh. 3 study of reslizumab in patients with poorly controlled asthma: effects across a broad range of eosinophil by doctors l practice(gp)/family practice(fp)*********.
