Preterm labor (PTL) and preeclampsia (pre-e) are the most common complications resulting in ED visits and often, transport. While completely different pathologies, both PTL and Pre-E are usually stabilized with Magnesium Sulfate. Come to this fast-paced and funny lecture to learn the vastly different mechanism of action of this diverse med and how it can safely be used to stabilize an unpredictable OB patient and optimize fetal outcomes. Change your confidence and opinion about hanging Mag from a drag to a brag!
Learning Objectives:
Participants will compare and contrast the use of Magnesium Sulfate for the use of preterm labor and pre-eclampsia
Participants will identify the good (therapeutic), the bad (adverse reactions), and the ugly (magnesium toxicity) of Magnesium Sulfate
Participants will list the fetal neuroprotective properties associated with Magnesium Sulfate
