The goal of this observational study is to observe analgetic and anxiolytic effect of gass mixture of oxygen:nitrigen suboxide 50%:50% in pediatric patients sujected to minimal invasive procedures. The main question it aims to answer is: Does gass mixture of oxygen:nitrigen suboxide 50%:50% has effective anxyolitic and analgetic properties for minimal inavsive procedures in pediatric patients?

Pain score for children from 1 to 4 years
Pain assessed using pain scale: 1-4 years using FLAAC (Face, Leg, Activity, Cry and Consolability) pain scale. Pain was categorized as: 0-no pain, 1-3 mild, 4-6 moderate and 7-10 severe
Time frame: 5 minutes during the minimal invasive procedure
Pain score for children from 4 to 9 years.
Pain assessed using pain scale: 4-9 years using Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale. Pain was categorized as: 0-no pain, 1-3 mild, 4-6 moderate and 7-10 severe
Time frame: 5 minutes during the minimal invasive procedure
Pain score for children from 9 to 16 years
Pain assessed using pain scale: from 9-16 years using Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Pain was categorized as: 0-no pain, 1-3 mild, 4-6 moderate and 7-10 severe.
Time frame: 5 minutes during the minimal invasive procedure
anxiolytic effect
anxiolytic effect qualified as "cooperative" and "uncooperative"
Time frame: 5 minutes during the minimal invasive procedure
hypotension
drop in noninvasive blood pressure for more than 20mmHg value for age
Time frame: measured 5 minutes after initiating application of gase mixture of oxygen:nitrogen oxide 50%:50%
bradycardia
Drop in heart rate measured as beats per minute according to age
Time frame: measured 5 minutes after initiating application of gase mixture of oxygen:nitrogen oxide 50%:50%
desaturation
fall of hemoglobine oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry SpO2 belov 94%
Time frame: measured 5 minutes after initiating application of gase mixture of oxygen:nitrogen oxide 50%:50%
level of sedation
Level of sedation will be estimated using Ramsay sedation scale. The Ramsay sedation scale is a well-established monitoring method to determine the level of awareness. Points assigned are : 1-Patient anxious, agitated, or restless; 2- Patient cooperative, oriented, or tranquil; 3- Patient responds to commands only; 4- Brisk response to a light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus; 5 -Sluggish response to a light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus; 6-No response
Time frame: Assessment will be made at the beginig of applicati
