Magnesium sulphate to protect babies born very early
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving magnesium sulphate (a mineral treatment) to pregnant women at risk of delivering very early (32–35 weeks) can protect the baby's brain and nervous system. The treatment is given before labor starts.

This study looks at different ways to give magnesium sulphate to women with severe preeclampsia to find the best treatment plan.
This trial tests whether giving magnesium sulphate to newborns with birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen at birth) can help them recover faster and shorten their hospital stay.
This study looks at whether certain blood tests can help doctors manage high blood pressure after delivery in people with severe preeclampsia. It compares the usual care with additional blood tests to see if they improve recovery and reduce complications.
This study tests if taking a combination of magnesium, a natural supplement (palmitoylethanolamide), hyaluronic acid, and vitamins B6 and D can help prevent preterm birth in women with a shorter-than-ideal cervix.
This trial tests whether giving both magnesium sulfate and melatonin to newborns with brain injury from lack of oxygen works better than magnesium sulfate alone. The goal is to see if the combination improves recovery and reduces long-term disability.
This trial tests whether giving a one-time magnesium dose (through an IV) before or during surgery changes how well doctors can monitor nerves while you’re under anesthesia. It may help make nerve monitoring more reliable during spine or brain operations.
