Smallest effective dose of bupivacaine for chest surgery pain block

This study compares an image-guided version of a minimally invasive lung surgery to the standard approach for removing small lung nodules. It may help doctors improve planning and targeting of the nodule during surgery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05351229RecruitingPhase 4
Spinal morphine for pain control after lung surgery
This trial tests whether putting morphine into the spinal area during lung surgery can reduce pain after surgery for people having certain minimally invasive lung operations. It aims to improve comfort and possibly reduce the need for other pain medicines.

High-dose steroid to reduce pain after lung surgery
This trial tests if a high dose of dexamethasone (a steroid) can lower pain after keyhole lung surgery. If you are having planned keyhole lung surgery for a lobe or segment, you may be eligible.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07432711Recruiting
Liposomal bupivacaine for pain after lung surgery
This trial tests if a long-acting numbing medicine called liposomal bupivacaine can reduce pain after video-assisted lung surgery. It aims to help patients feel better after the procedure with less need for other painkillers.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07441902Recruiting
Numbing medicine for lung surgery pain relief
This trial tests whether a numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) injected near the ribs can reduce pain after lung surgery. If you qualify, you may experience less pain and need fewer painkillers after your operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07535697Recruiting
Pain relief methods after lung surgery: two approaches compared
This study compares two ways to reduce pain after minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS). Researchers test whether numbing the chest wall with ultrasound guidance works as well as numbing nerves seen during surgery to help you recover more comfortably.
Offenbach, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07579117Recruiting
Video-Assisted Breast Surgery With Nipple Preservation
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgical technique that removes breast tissue while preserving the nipple and immediately reconstructing the breast. It may be suitable if you have early-stage breast cancer or are at high genetic risk and need preventive breast removal.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07184463Recruiting
Pain reduction after lung surgery using different robot methods
This trial compares three ways to do robotic lung surgery to see which one causes less pain afterward. If you are having lung surgery, it may help your recovery be more comfortable.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06776900Recruiting
Breathing tube placement: side vs. back in children
This study compares two ways of placing a breathing tube (fiberoptic intubation) in children during surgery: lying on their side versus lying on their back. It aims to see which position is easier and safer for kids having non-head-and-neck surgeries.
CairoAges 2–10 - NCT07745881Recruiting
Pain relief after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a nerve block that may reduce pain after surgery for lung cancer. It's a technique that numbs a specific area in the back to help you feel more comfortable during recovery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT04940000Recruiting
Remote video speech therapy check-ins for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether video call speech therapy consultations can work well for people with head and neck (ORL) cancer who need speech/voice support during treatment. It may help you get care closer to home while still being guided by speech therapists.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT04223466Recruiting
Surgery to remove the thymus using two different approaches
This trial compares two ways of surgically removing the thymus: a camera-assisted approach through the chest versus an approach through an opening under the breastbone. It may help people with thymus tumors or certain types of myasthenia gravis when medicines alone have not worked well.
Jinan, ShandongAges 20–80 - NCT06426706Recruiting
Nerve Blocks for Pain After VATS Lung Surgery
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (TPVB and SPSIPB) to see which is better at controlling pain after keyhole lung surgery. If you are having VATS, the trial may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT07626489Recruiting
Numbing injection to reduce pain after lung surgery
This trial tests whether injecting a numbing medication (ropivacaine) mixed with a steroid (Diprospan) into the surgical area before chest surgery can reduce pain after the procedure. If it works, patients may need fewer pain pills and feel more comfortable during recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07063602Recruiting
Comparing nerve block methods for pain after lung surgery
This study compares two ways of giving a paravertebral nerve block (an injection near the spine to numb the chest) to control pain after a type of lung surgery called VATS. It aims to find the best approach for reducing pain and the need for stronger pain medicines.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07071896Recruiting
Video exercise program for breast cancer survivors
This study tests a video-based exercise program for people who recently had breast cancer surgery. It aims to help with recovery by providing guided exercises you can do at home.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07360028Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after chest surgery
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to control pain after chest surgery done with a camera. It aims to find which block works better so you can recover more comfortably.
Cairo, Abbassia-EgyptAges 25–70 - NCT06486168Recruiting
Diaphragm weakness after non-intubated lung surgery
This study looks at how often the diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) weakens after lung surgery done without a breathing tube. It aims to help doctors understand recovery and prevent future breathing problems.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for video-assisted?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 44 recruiting video-assisted studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a video-assisted trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a video-assisted trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
