Brief Summary: Depression in neurocognitive disorders Alzheimers disease and related disoders is a highly prevalent condition especially in nursing homes While it is associated with significant distress the current conventional antidepressants have shown only modest efficacy and exposed to potentially severe side effects

Recent evidence suggests that nitrous oxide N2O in its most commonly used packaging of EMONO Equimolar Mixture of Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide has rapid antidepressant properties and a good safety profile However no study has investigating the antidepressant effect of EMONO in a population of depressed older adults with moderate to severe neurocognitive disorders in nursing homes

The principal goal of the PROTO-EHPAD study is to compare the changes in depressive symptoms in such individuals in a randomized controlled trial with a follow up period of 8 weeks with a dosage escalation procedure
Detailed Description: Participants will be exposed to 3 sessions of EMONO or Medical Air with intervals of 1 week between sessions a first session of 20 minutes a second of 40 minutes one week later and a final session of 60 minutes one week later Efficacy will be assessed 1 week after each session and 4 weeks after the last session
