Inadequate pain control reduces the capacity to cough, mobility, increases the frequency of atelectasis, and prolongs recovery.\n\nA major cause of pain after cardiac surgery is the median sternotomy particularly on the first two postoperative days.\n\nThe most often used analgesics in these patients are parenteral opioids which can lead to undesirable side-effects as sedation, respiratory depression, nausea, and vomiting.\n\nInfiltration of local anesthetics near the surgical wound has shown to improve early postoperative pain in various surgical procedures.\n\nMagnesium is the fourth most plentiful cation in our body. It has antinociceptive effects in animal and human models of pain.\n\nIt has been mentioned in a systematic review that it may be worthwhile to further study the role of supplemental magnesium in providing perioperative analgesia, because this is a relatively harmless molecule, is not expensive and also because the biological basis for its potential antinociceptive effect is promising.\n\nThese effects are primarily based on physiological calcium antagonism, that is voltage-dependent regulation of calcium influx into the cell, and noncompetitive antagonism of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors.\n\npostoperative pain control will be by 1gm paracetamol / 6 hr, Ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg / 8:12 hour in control group vs bupivacaine 0.125% plus magnesium sulfate 5% through a single catheter after parasternal block in in study group after cardiac surgery.\n\nThe investigators primary outcome is pain scores assessment , the secondary outcomes are extubation time, postoperative respiratory parameters, serum cortisol level'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '60 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 18-60 years old\n* American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status II and III\n* Patients scheduled for open heart surgery with sternotomy\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Emergency surgery\n* Clinically significant kidney or liver disease\n* Patients allergic to local anesthetic\n* Patients with prolonged CPB time (\\>120 min)\n* Patients required intra-aortic balloon pump'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02731950', 'briefTitle': 'Presternal Bupivacaine Plus Magnesium Sulfate Infusion After Cardiac Surgery', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assiut University'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Analgesic Efficacy of Magnesium Sulfate as an Adjuvant to Continuous Presternal Bupivacaine Infusion Through a Single Catheter After Cardiac Surgery; A Prospective Randomized Double Blind Study.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'IRB00009904'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'A magnesium', 'description': 'Consists of 20 patients:\n\nEach receive bupivacaine 0.125% with 5% magnesium sulfate by infusion through a small diameter multi-hole soft catheter generally used for epidural analgesia positioned anterior to the sternum above the fascia in the subcutaneous tissue during wound closure for 48 hours postoperative.
