Nitrous Oxide for Lumbar Puncture

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2017
Lumbar puncture (LP) is a frequent exam that can cause pain and anxiety. In a pilot single-center study, it has been shown that nitrous oxide use during the procedure was able to reduce both pain and anxiety (Moisset et al., Eur J Neurol 2017). The goal of this multi-center trial is to confirm these results in a larger and more heterogeneous group of patients having a LP.
