nitrous oxide and Coma

nitrous oxide has been researched along with Coma in 5 studies

Nitrous Oxide: Nitrogen oxide (N2O). A colorless, odorless gas that is used as an anesthetic and analgesic. High concentrations cause a narcotic effect and may replace oxygen, causing death by asphyxia. It is also used as a food aerosol in the preparation of whipping cream.
dinitrogen oxide : A nitrogen oxide consisting of linear unsymmetrical molecules with formula N2O. While it is the most used gaseous anaesthetic in the world, its major commercial use, due to its solubility under pressure in vegetable fats combined with its non-toxicity in low concentrations, is as an aerosol spray propellant and aerating agent for canisters of 'whipped' cream.

Coma: A profound state of unconsciousness associated with depressed cerebral activity from which the individual cannot be aroused. Coma generally occurs when there is dysfunction or injury involving both cerebral hemispheres or the brain stem RETICULAR FORMATION.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In an earlier study on the effect of mild hypothermia (34 degrees C) on the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMRO2) in rats, we used norepinephrine (NE) to support arterial blood pressure while inducing isoelectricity on the electroencephalogram (EEG) with thiopental (TP)."3.69Norepinephrine activation of basal cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMRO2) during hypothermia in rats.
