    The uptake and excretion of nitrous oxide in the newborn.

    Abstract

    In the newborn, the uptake of nitrous oxide into the alveolus is very rapid, as is the fall in alveolar levels following withdrawal of the agent. During recovery relatively large volumes of nitrous oxide are excreted in the first minute, after which the excretion rate rapidly declines, most of the gas having been eliminated.
