چکیده

Methods A 50:50 mixture with NO and oxygen was administered to JIA patients over the age of 5 years scheduled for joint injection. In some cases additional sedative agents (local EMLA, orally midazolam, nasal fentanest) was administered. Every patient completed visual-analogue scores (VAS) (0-10) for pain immediately after the procedure, and after 30 and 60 minutes. The physician valuated sedation level according to Ramsay scale and memory level of the procedure.
