Watford General Hospital recorded 50 times birth gas legal limit

Watford General Hospital recorded 50 times birth gas legal limit Nitrous oxide levels on Watford General Hospital's maternity suite far exceeded legal limits during peak periods, a BBC investigation has found.

In February 2022, air monitoring showed levels of almost 5,000 parts per million (ppm) - 50 times what is safe.

The hospital's trust said it had since installed machines to remove the gas. BBC News
