Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the prophylactic role of magnesium tablets on reduction of atrial fibrillation rhythm in patients undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery
Design
A randomized clinical trial, phase 3 with parallel groups, that includes a control group, design of 70 patients.
Settings and conduct
This study will be done at Heshmat Hospital in Rasht on patients undergoing Coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Seventy patients randomly and with quadruple block method will be divided in two groups of magnesium sulfate and control. Magnesium level of plasma will be controlled daily for both groups And if it was higher than normal, the medication will be discontinued for the intervention group. Patients who have arterial fibrillation(AF) rhythm in the monitor for more than 30 seconds are considered as AF+ patients. Finally, the data will be compared in 2 groups.This study does not require blindness and patients and the surgeon are aware of the process.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
InclusionCriteria: Only cardiopulmonary bypass graft surgery (not associated with valve operation).First-time open heart surgery.Ejection Fraction(EF) more than 35%. Non-inclusion Criteria: History of Previous arterial fibrillation(AF), History of kidney disease, History of showing an allergic reaction to magnesium, History of taking antiarrhythmic drugs.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: A 250 milligrams magnesium tablet (produced by the 21st-century company) will be prescribed daily from 48 hours before the operation.After the operation and transferred to ICU, if the patient is extubated, orally and if still intubated, through NGT tube, he will receive next doses till the fifth-day after the operation. The control group won't receive any drug.
Main outcome variables
Arterial fibrillation rhythm in patients undergoing Cardiopulmonary bypass graft surgery, Hospitalization time in ICU and hospital

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: All pre-operative patients will be interviewed and the method will be explained to them and written informed consent will be obtained. In both groups, a blood sample for magnesium serum will be taken first and if it is within the normal range (1/5-2/5 milliequivalents per liter), from 48 hours pre-operation, a 250 milligrams magnesium tablet (manufacturer: 21st century)will be given to intervention group at 6 am. This step is done by a collaborator nurse. After surgery and transfer to the ICU, both groups of patients undergo intensive care and ECG monitoring. The intervention group, in case of staying intubated they will take the tablet through NGT tube and if extubated they will take it orally their next 6 am tablet and it will be continued till the fifth day after surgery. The nurse giving the drug to the patient is not in the care team. Magnesium level of plasma in both groups will be controlled daily and if it was higher than the normal range, the medication will be stopped. All this time, a collaborator anesthetist is aware of receiving the drug by intervention group and will intervene immediately in the event of a complication.
