Pain relief trial with inhaled methoxyflurane for adults with injuries
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if an inhaled pain medicine called methoxyflurane can quickly reduce severe pain from injuries in adults before they reach the hospital. Paramedics will give the medicine to patients who have significant pain from trauma and are stable enough to travel.
