Magnesium sulphate in the Emergency Department: an old, new friend.

With our study, we searched the medical literature to find magnesium (Mg) correlation with Emergency situations or its use in Emergency Medicine. Our aim is to fill the gap that we find in our daily routine between Mg studies on its role in Emergency and the real conception that doctors have of it in medical practice. We searched the literature for terms as magnesium or magnesium sulphate, magnesium in emergency, eclampsia, arrhythmias, acute asthma exacerbation, magnesium, and pediatric population. After a thorough research, we divided our discoveries into chapters to sort out a large amount often discordant articles.
