Why Magnesium sulfate?

Magnesium sulfate (given intravenously) is the treatment of choice for severe preeclampsia to prevent eclampsia, or after eclampsia develops to prevent more seizures. Many, but not all, providers will also treat every preeclamptic patient with magnesium sulfate during labor, even when the disease may only have mild features. Eclampsia can occur even without the presence of severe preeclampsia symptoms. Magnesium treatment is generally continued for 24-48 hours after the last seizure or beyond delivery. Patients may receive magnesium sulfate in an intensive care unit or a labor and delivery unit. While magnesium is given patients should be observed closely, receive intravenous fluids, and may have a catheter placed in their bladder to measure urine output.

Magnesium sulfate can be used by a skilled healthcare provider with appropriate support facilities. Overdoses can occur and lead to harm to the kidneys, so patients should be closely monitored.

Magnesium sulfate can make most patients feel yucky, while some report they feel better on it. Side effects of magnesium sulfate may include drowsiness, redness, flushing or overheating, muscle fatigue or weakness, dizziness, and trouble concentrating. Symptoms typically go away shortly after the medication is stopped. Its use can be very uncomfortable, providers included it in treatments to prevent a worse outcome - seizures.

Infusing Passion Into Nursing Through Perinatal Potpourri

LaShea has been a perinatal nurse for 24 years and in that time has developed a wide range of skills, abilities and knowledge to empower your healthcare team. Her delivery of new information is presented in a way that captivates her audiences and leaves them wanting further development and mentoring. This company was developed because of the large amount of unit based educators; I began to mentor after they had enrolled in one of my on-site courses. I found myself in my downtime being a teacher, an advisor, a role model, a coach and a motivator to many of my past attendees. So I have developed a mentorship program that gives unit based educators or a nurse champion a comprehensive program that will provide directional guidance as they learn and adapt to the many tasks and skills they are expected to obtain as a new educator or similar role.

Our values: Perinatal Potpourri’s vision is just as the Holy Scriptures state “faith without works is dead” “ideas and thoughts without action are worthless” Helen Keller. So we value ourselves on not providing our mentees with just the knowledge of the best evidence to guide clinical practice but effective strategies to translate that into clinical practice. This program benefits the entire organization because ultimately EBP provides improvement in the quality of care and improves patient outcomes/satisfaction while decreasing healthcare costs, morbidities and mortalities.

Finally, we value providing tools to continue to invigorate and motivate bedside nurses through the programs competency and professional resources. This will ultimately keep their lights shining bright and maintain their zeal for direct patient care.
