Magnesium Sulphate Versus Fentanyl as Adjuvants to Propofol Xylocaine Combination for Conscious Sedation During Chronic Subdural Haematoma Surgery. Comparative Study
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Magnesium sulphate, Fentanyl, and 1 other intervention for Conscious Sedation. Completed, enrolled 34 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators hypothesize that magnesium sulphate owing to its analgesic and sedative properties is not inferior to fentanyl in providing conscious sedation as adjuvants to propofol and local injection of lidocaine in patients undergoing surgery for evacuation of subdural haematoma. Consequently, the investigators are testing this hypothesis by comparing the sedative and analgesic effects of magnesium sulphate versus fentanyl as adjuvants to propofol lidocaine admixture for conscious sedation in patients undergoing burr hole surgery for evacuation of subdural haematoma.

Timeline
Interventions
Magnesium sulphate will be given to the experimental group in a dose of 50mg/kg IV over 15 minutes followed by continuous infusion at 15 mg/kg/h
Fentanyl will be given to the active comparator group in a dose of 1 μg /kg IV bolus over 15 minutes followed by continuous infusion starting at 0.5 μg /kg/h
In both groups Fentanyl and magnesium sulphate will be accompanied by IV propofol at a dose of 50- 150 μg /kg) bolus over 15 minutes to achieve target sedation level, that is Ramsay sedation scale (RSS) 3,if RSS afterwards does not reach 3, a supplementary bolus dose of 0.2 mg/kg propofol will be given to the patients, followed by ( 20-40 μg /kg/ min) to maintain Intraoperative level of sedation by bispectral index (BIS ) reading by 60-80%
