Abstract :

Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent for cervical cancer patients receiving radiation as the main therapy. One of cisplatin’s sideeffects is electrolyte disturbance, which is decreasing magnesium and potassium level. However, the application of MgSO4 and KClparenteral supplementation effectiveness as the hypomagnesaemia and hypokalemia prophylaxis remained in question. This studywas to evaluate magnesium and potassium parenteral supplementation effectiveness on magnesium and potassium serum level incervical cancer patients receiving cisplatin 50 mg/m2. This was an observational study using cross-sectional method. The inclusioncriteria was IIB stage cervical cancer patients who were going to receive the fourth cycle. All patients (n=22 patients) received 1000cc normal saline (NS) hydration, but only patients in treatment group (n=11 patients) received MgSO4 (0.5 g) and KCl (10 mEq)supplementation together with post-chemotherapy hydration. Data obtained were magnesium, potassium, creatinine, and BUN serumconcentration, each was measured pre- and post-fourth cycle cisplatin chemotherapy. Results, in pre-fourth cycle control group,magnesium serum level was 1.87 ± 0.22 mg/dL while potassium was 4.15 ± 0.71 mmol/L. In post-fourth cycle, magnesium serum was1.75 ± 0.19 mg/dL while potassium was 4.21 ± 0.67 mmol/L. In pre-fourth cycle treatment group, magnesium serum was 1.95 ± 0.25mg/dL while potassium was 4.06 ± 0.36 mmol/L. In post-fourth cycle, magnesium serum was 1.85 ± 0.16 mg/dL while potassium was4.01 ± 0.28 mmol/L. In conclusions, both groups showed no significant difference in magnesium serum and in potassium levels. Noclinical manifestation hypomagnesaemia or hypokalemia appeared in any patient.
