Magnesium sulfate safety profile has been documented by histopathological analysis in experimental studies. magnesium sulfate added to local anesthetics decrease postoperative opioid requirements.
Spinal anesthesia is commonly used for the major abdominal cancer surgery because of decreasing the risks of general anesthesia.The quality and duration of sensory and motor block and decrease post operative pain is important in the major abdominal cancer surgery and patient's content satisfaction. Opioids in high doses and other drug such as clonidine and neostigmine added to local anesthetics to this purpose, but significant side effects.
Magnesium sulfate block the N- methyle -D- aspartate (NMDA) channels in a voltage-dependent way to be improve the quality and duration of spinal block. However, the use of magnesium sulfate safety profile has been documented by histopathological analysis in experimental studies. Systemic delivery of magnesium sulfate decrease postoperative opioid requirements. In experimental studies, spinal injection of magnesium sulfate reduces the respond to painful stimulus in rats.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The anaesthetists’ scale of health before surgery: I is healthy, II has a mild illness that is under control, III a severe one, IV a severe illness that is a constant threat to life. V and VI are used for the critically ill and for organ donors.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Procedure: intrathecal morphine+LA+ Mg sulp. 50

Procedure: intrathecal morphine+LA+ Mg sulp. 100
Lumbar puncture will be performed in the sitting position. A 25 gauge (pencil point, Braun, Melsungen, Germany) spinal needle will be introduced into the subarachnoid space at the L3-L4 lumber level midline approach with the needle orifice cephalad. Cerebrospinal fluid will be aspirated and the ready mixture will be injected to subarachnoid space over the period of 15 s, with barbotage. patients will receive intrathecal LA 15 mg (3 mL) (hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5%) intrathecal with 0.5 mg preservative free morphine + magnesium sulfate 100 mg.

Ran from Jan 2018 to primary completion in May 2019, 16 months.
Of 85 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Abdominal Pain, half reached primary completion within 16 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 30. This study's 16 months is close to that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 101 studies reached it within 13 months; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 26.
