    Self-Adjusted Nitrous Oxide: A Feasibility Study in the Setting of Vasectomy

    Testing whether self-controlled nitrous oxide during vasectomy lowers pain and anxiety

    📍 Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center · Boston, MA · Get directions →

    This study is being done to see if nitrous oxide during vasectomy decreases pain and anxiety, and also assess whether patients have better satisfaction when they control their own level of nitrous oxide during the procedure. If we find that patients experience less pain or anxiety with nitrous oxide, it could be suggested that self-adjusted nitrous oxide (SANO) may be a useful tool for improving experience of care during vasectomy.

    The Effects of Positive Airway Pressure on the Mucolytic Effects of NAC (TEAM)

    Testing whether positive airway pressure helps a lung medicine (NAC) reach mucus plugs in asthma or

    📍 UCSF Airway Clinical Research Center · San Francisco, CA · Get directions →

    The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if positive pressure during inspiration will improve penetration of aerosolized N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) into airway mucus plugs in the lungs of patients with asthma or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does delivery of aerosolized NAC with positive inspiratory pressure have a greater effect on mucus plug burden in the lungs than delivery of NAC without positive pressure.
