Summary

we conducted this study to compare between effect of nebulized and intravenous magnesium sulfate (MgSO₄) for better treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension of neonates with less side effects.

Conditions

  • Magnesium Sulfate - PPHN

Interventions

DRUG

IV Magnesium Sulfate

MgSO₄'s mechanism in PPHN includes activating cellular processes, modulating membrane excitability, and acting as a physiological calcium antagonist. It exerts sedative, muscle relaxant, and bronchodilatory properties, while concurrently inducing a state of alkalosis.

DRUG

Inhalational magnesium sulfate

It gives us the same mechanism of action as IV MgSO4 with less side effects.
