VIDEO: It’s been a little over three months since the Goose Creek Fire Department announced the new medical tool Pro-Nox that reduces patient pain. The department is excited to share their progress with the pain reliever. So far officials with the fire department said Pro-Nox has been used 20 times and has improved patient care tremendously. The Goose Creek Fire Department added Pro-Nox to its tool kit back in September. The safe analgesic gas delivers a balanced mixture of Nitrous Oxide and Oxygen, commonly known as “laughing gas.” Pro-Nox alleviates pain while also reducing stress, anxiety, and discomfort. The department uses a scale of 1 to 10 to measure pain and has seen a 50 percent reduction in pain management.
