Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Tolerability of Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis (NCT NCT00570349)

NCT ID: NCT00570349

Last Updated: 2019-11-13

Results Overview

Methemoglobin level assessments were measured through blood draws - hematology. This test measures the amount of methemoglobin (a type of hemoglobin that is unable to transport oxygen to tissues) in blood. Normal methemoglobin percentage range 1% - 2%.
