NCT ID NCT04166877

Summary

This study is testing if giving a continuous magnesium drip through an IV can help manage pain in adults who are critically injured and in the ICU. The goal is to see if this common mineral can safely reduce patients' pain scores and their need for strong opioid painkillers. Researchers will compare the magnesium drip to a standard saltwater IV in about 156 patients.
