PDF20228 pages1.3 MB
The document reviews randomized controlled trials to determine the effectiveness of different durations of magnesium sulphate administration postpartum. It includes a comprehensive search of multiple databases and analyzes data from 10 studies. The findings suggest that shorter durations of magnesium sulphate do not increase the risk of eclampsia compared to longer regimens, while also reducing secondary outcomes such as hospital stay and time to ambulation.
