Could a common hospital gas deplete a vital vitamin in sick kids?

NCT ID NCT06581900

Summary

This study aims to understand if a pain-relief gas called MEOPA, often used for sickle cell pain crises, affects vitamin B12 levels in children. Researchers will measure vitamin B12 and related substances in the blood and urine of 29 children (ages 2-18) during and after their hospital stay. The goal is to learn if the gas causes a vitamin deficiency and if some children are more at risk, which could help improve their care.
