Abstract:
This article examines the worldwide literature for information regarding the potential adverse effects of nitrous oxide on chronically exposed personnel. This research convincingly demonstrates the lack of substantiation for these concerns. Biologically correlated standards for exposure still need to be established. Nitrous oxide has never been implicated to be harmful in any way to the patient.
