Key result
Magnesium during anesthesia may reduce critical events and improve recovery by ameliorating the sympathetic response.
Why the study?
The physiological mechanism of magnesium and its potential to reduce critical events and enhance recovery during anaesthesia in the perioperative period require clarification.
Does regular magnesium administration during anaesthesia reduce the incidence of critical events and enhance recovery after surgery?
Does regular magnesium administration during anaesthesia reduce the incidence of critical events and enhance recovery after surgery?
This review highlights the physiological mechanisms of magnesium and suggests its regular use during anaesthesia may improve perioperative outcomes.
May support magnesium in anaesthesia protocols; leaves open confirmation by prospective trials.
Magnesium plays a vital role in maintaining the body's homeostasis. Magnesium is involved in multiple intracellular processes and ameliorates the sympathetic response, which may well help with the preservation of energy and prevention of avoidable complications in the perioperative period. The aim of this descriptive review is to highlight the physiological mechanism of action of magnesium and how the use of regular magnesium during anaesthesia may reduce the incidence of critical events and enhance a patient's recovery after surgery.

Marcela P. Vizcaychipi (2013) conducted a review in Perioperative care. Magnesium was evaluated. Regular magnesium use during anaesthesia may reduce the incidence of critical events and enhance patient recovery after surgery by ameliorating the sympathetic response.
