A Pilot Trial of Disposable Nitrous Oxide Canisters in Providing Pain Control During Burn Dressing Changes (NCT03695887)
A Pilot Randomized Controlled Crossover Trial of the Effectiveness of Disposable Nitrous Oxide Canisters in Providing Improved Pain Control During Burn Dressing Changes.
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Improvements in burn care have resulted in increased survival. Despite these improved outcomes one of the leading challenges of burn care remains providing adequate analgesia during routine wound care and dressing changes. The traditional use of narcotics is challenging as the therapeutic window between analgesia and suppression of breathing becomes narrow with the intense pain and high doses of narcotics needed for dressing changes.
