Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

MEOPA

Arm Description

Patients included in the study will receive MEOPA with a high concentration mask (bottle stored for at least 48 hours horizontally) at a minimum flow rate of 10 L / min under supervision of a health care worker after explanation of use to the patient in a quiet environment (box). MEOPA will be administered for a maximum total duration of 20 minutes, continuously or not depending on the needs of the patient, but after a continuous phase at the beginning of treatment of at least 3 minutes.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)
Pain Ealuation. Score : 0 to 10. Proportion of individuals whose initial pain evaluation (Digital Scale) is divided by at least two to T20.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Analgesics consumption
Proportion of individuals who used analgesics between T0 and T20, between T20 and T60, between T60 and T240, and between T240 and at the end of hospitalization.
Adverse effects related to taking analgesics,
NRS average
Pain average (digital scale) at T0 (before administration of the first analgesic, MEOPA or other), T20, T60, T240, and at at the end of hospitalization. Average of NRS score (pain evaluation, score : 0 to 10).
Hospitalization time
Hospitalization time in emergency

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
MEOPA (Equimolar Oxygen-Nitrogen Protoxide Mix) is a gas used in emergencies for short-term painful acts. It is often very effective with an analgesic, anxiolytic and muscle relaxant action. It is often combined with other analgesic medicines. It has already been proven in emergency medicine for short-term pain and trauma. It seems that it could be used more particularly for pains of medical origin. A study has already proved its effectiveness in the treatment of migraines in emergencies. The first phase of the NEPHROPAIN study began in 2016 after a favorable opinion from the Regional Ethics Committee. NEPHROPAIN phase AVANT was a prospective non-interventional study on the use of analgesic drugs in nephritic colic in emergencies by Dr. Alexandre Tanneau. This study was conducted at the University Hospital of Rennes and included 60 patients admitted to the emergency department for suspected renal colic. It made it possible to recruit the control group of the NEPHROPAIN study. Its main objective was to describe the suspected population of renal colic in Rennes emergencies, to determine NEPHROPAIN's primary endpoint and the number of NEPHROPAIN needed subjects.
