Protocol summary

Study aim
Compare the analgesic efficacy of magnesium sulfate versus lignocaine with intravenous acetaminophen in asthmatic patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Design
The patients were Group into M (n=55) receiving IV MgSO4 and IV Acetaminophen and Group L (n=55) IV Lignocaine with IV Acetaminophen. Variables measured were per-operative mean heart rate, mean arterial pressure, time to first rescue analgesia, total dose of analgesia required in the next 24 hours post-surgery, and median pain scores at 1-, 3- and 6-hour intervals.
Settings and conduct
This quasi-experimental study was carried out at the Department of Anesthesiology, Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi from Jun 2023-Dec 2023.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy which included all ASA-I and II patients diagnosed with asthma by spirometry pre- and post-bronchodilator therapy. Exclusion criteria: included patients with major cardiac or respiratory disease, low ejection fraction, unoptimized for hypertension or diabetes, patients with cholecystitis, patients allergic to acetaminophen, MgSO4, lignocaine or nalbuphine, patient with history of asthma exacerbation requiring admission in the last 8 weeks, patients on oral or intravenous steroids for asthma and patients unwilling to be included in the study.
Intervention groups
patients were divided into two groups. Patients in Group M received intravenous MgSO4 with intravenous acetaminophen. Patients in Group L received intravenous lignocaine with intravenous acetaminophen.
Main outcome variables
heart rate, mean arterial pressure, time to first rescue analgesia, total dose of analgesia required in the next 24 hours post-surgery, and median pain scores at 1-, 3- and 6-hour intervals.
