Neurophysiological Characteristics of Nitrous Oxide‐Induced Polyneuropathy: A Case Series

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System September 1, 2026 Tanya Elisabeth Bentley, Volker Limmroth, Maximilian Zimmermann et al.

ABSTRACT: Background: Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) misuse is a growing health concern, with N 2 O‐induced neurological disorders increasingly reported across Europe. Among these, N 2 O‐induced polyneuropathy (PNP) can lead to permanent deficits, yet its neurophysiological characteristics remain inconsistently described. This retrospective case series aimed to characterize the electrophysiological...

Increase of nitrous oxide-induced neurological disorders – a German multicenter experience

Neurological Research and Practice January 16, 2025 J. Meißner, Janina Neuneier, Iason Bartzokis et al.

Nitrous oxide (N₂O), commonly known as laughing gas, is widely recognized for its anesthetic and analgesic effects, and is frequently used in medical contexts. However, its misuse can lead to significant neurological complications, which are often under-recognized in clinical practice. Recent data on such cases in Germany are rare. We here report the spectrum of neurological complications...
