Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include ASA I and II patients over 18 years old undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgeries who are receiving prophylactic anticoagulant therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with ASA classification III or higher, those under 18 years old, or those with significant comorbidities such as severe anemia or known hematologic disorders may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This prospective randomized, double-blind study investigates how magnesium sulfate affects postoperative hypercoagulability in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgeries under general anesthesia. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either magnesium sulfate or a placebo (normal saline), with both patients and investigators unaware of the treatment allocation. The study utilizes thromboelastometry to measure various blood coagulation parameters, including clotting time and coagulation markers, to determine the therapeutic potential of magnesium sulfate in reducing hypercoagulability after surgery.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved management of postoperative blood clotting, reducing the risk of complications for patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgeries.
How similar studies have gone: While the specific application of magnesium sulfate in this context may be novel, similar studies investigating anticoagulant therapies have shown promising results in managing postoperative hypercoagulability.
