Overview

Magnesium sulphate + normal saline is a combination therapy being investigated for its anesthetic and analgesic effects in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Magnesium sulphate functions as a non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and a blocker of voltage-gated calcium channels, mechanisms that contribute to its ability to modulate pain signaling and reduce the need for perioperative opioids. In this clinical trial setting, it is administered intravenously as a bolus followed by a continuous infusion, with normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) serving as the diluent and vehicle. The study, led by Aretaieion University Hospital, aims to evaluate the impact of this regimen on recovery outcomes and postoperative pain management.
