NCT02835339

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn how medications participant will receive in the course of their delivery are metabolized (broken down by the body). The investigators hope to learn more about the way drugs are metabolized by pregnant women, and how those drugs are distributed in the blood and body compartments and cleared in the urine, and how maternal body weight affects the metabolism. With this information the investigators will be able to develop a treatment regimen considering factors in the body that affect magnesium levels so that the investigators can improve treatment of pregnant women. The goal of the study is to understand how different dosing of magnesium sulfate affects blood levels of the magnesium in larger women.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Maternal Serum Magnesium Level at 4 Hours After Administration

    magnesium level in mg/dL

    4 hours

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Maternal Serum Magnesium Level at Time of Delivery

    Within 20 minutes of delivery

  • Maternal Side Effects

    4 hours

Study Arms (2)

MgSO4 4g load, 1g/hr infusion

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Once their obstetrician prescribes magnesium sulfate, participant will be assigned by 50/50 chance to one of two treatment regimens. Participant will be assigned to either a dose of 4 g at the start, followed by 1g every hour; or a dose of 6 g at the start, followed by 2g every hour until treatment for preeclampsia is complete.

Drug: Magnesium sulfate 4g loading dose, 1g/hr infusion

MgSO4 6g load, 2g/hr infusion

EXPERIMENTAL

Once their obstetrician prescribes magnesium sulfate, participant will be assigned by 50/50 chance to one of two treatment regimens. Participant will be assigned to either a dose of 4 g at the start, followed by 1g every hour; or a dose of 6 g at the start, followed by 2g every hour until treatment for preeclampsia is complete.

Drug: Magnesium sulfate 6g loading dose, 2g/hr infusion

Interventions

MgSO4 4g load, 1g/hr infusion
MgSO4 6g load, 2g/hr infusion
