Details and patient eligibility

About

The hypothesis of this study is that Magnesium sulfate pretreatment (50mg/kg) will reduce the incidence of cough and chest wall rigidity caused by remifentanil administration.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of magnesium sulfate administered before induction of anesthesia on thoracic stiffness and cough response caused by opioid analgesics administered for general anesthesia.
