Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Postoperative pain after peroral endoscopic myotomy occurs due to involuntary esophageal smooth muscle spasms. Magnesium has antispasmodic properties as a smooth muscle relaxant. This study hypothesizes that among patients having peroral endoscopic myotomy, magnesium will reduce the incidence of postoperative pain while decreasing perioperative opioid requirements.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Magnesium sulfate
  • Drug: Normal Saline

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Magnesium sulfate 50 mg/kg bolus + 25 mg/kg/hr infusion

Bolus to be administered at start of mucosal incision, followed by infusion. Infusion to be terminated at extubation.

Drug: Magnesium sulfate
Magnesium infusion 50 mg/kg bolus over 15 minutes and 25 mg/kg/hr infusion, both administered intraoperatively under general anesthesia.

Placebo Comparator: Normal saline 0.9% 50 mg/kg bolus + 25 mg/kg/hr infusion

Bolus to be administered at start of mucosal incision, followed by infusion. Infusion to be terminated at extubation.

Drug: Normal Saline
Placebo. Bolus and infusion administered similarly under general anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Esophageal Symptoms Questionnaire Score (ESQ) [0 hours postoperatively]

    ESQ score is a validated survey score based on questions evaluating esophageal dysphagia, globus, and reflux. Responses based on a scale of 1 (Not severe) to 7 (Very severe)

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Esophageal Symptoms Questionnaire Score (ESQ) [24 hours postoperatively]

    ESQ score is a validated survey score based on questions evaluating esophageal dysphagia, globus, and reflux. Responses based on a scale of 1 (Not severe) to 7 (Very severe).

  2. Intraoperative opioid usage [Between induction of anesthesia and up to 5 minutes after extubation (total estimated time frame 2 hours)]

    Measured in intravenous fentanyl equivalents and oral morphine milliequivalents

  3. Total postoperative opioid consumption [From extubation to 24 hours after extubation]

    Measured in intravenous fentanyl equivalents and oral morphine milliequivalents

  4. Discharge opioid prescriptions [At time of discharge (up to 1 minute)]

    Measured in intravenous fentanyl equivalents and oral morphine milliequivalents
