nitrous oxide and Infarction, Middle Cerebral Artery

nitrous oxide has been researched along with Infarction, Middle Cerebral Artery 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.

Infarction, Middle Cerebral Artery: NECROSIS occurring in the MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY distribution system which brings blood to the entire lateral aspects of each CEREBRAL HEMISPHERE. Clinical signs include impaired cognition; APHASIA; AGRAPHIA; weak and numbness in the face and arms, contralaterally or bilaterally depending on the infarction.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Here, we show using multiple models of ex vivo and in vivo excitotoxic insults and brain ischemia that nitrous oxide, administered alone at nonanesthetic doses, offers global neuroprotection from reduction of neurotransmitter release induced by ischemia to reduction of subsequent cell injury."3.74Neuroprotection by nitrous oxide: facts and evidence.
