Opioid-free anesthesia with spontaneous breathing for VATS lung nodule surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to do VATS lung nodule surgery without using strong painkillers (opioids) and while you keep breathing on your own. It may help you recover faster with fewer side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 69 years old
- You are in good general health (ASA grade 1 or 2)
- You are scheduled for a VATS procedure to remove a lung nodule
- You agree to take part and sign a consent form
- Your surgery is not expected to be complex or require a larger incision

This study tests whether an opioid-free pain/anesthesia plan during elective lung surgery can reduce surgical “stress” on the body and affect the immune system. You may be eligible if you have early-stage non-small cell lung cancer and are scheduled for a specific type of surgery (VATS lobectomy).
This trial tests a 'tubeless' approach to lung surgery, meaning no breathing tube or chest tube is used during or after the procedure. It aims to help patients recover faster after surgery for small lung nodules.
This study compares two types of anesthesia for lung surgery: one where you are awake and breathing on your own without a breathing tube, and the other where you are asleep with a breathing tube. The goal is to see which approach leads to a faster recovery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia during surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to find the best approach to help you recover faster and with fewer side effects.
This study tests whether two different anesthesia approaches can reduce coughing after lung cancer surgery done through small incisions (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery). It may help you recover with less discomfort if you have a certain type of lung surgery.
This study tests whether injecting a numbing medicine and anti-inflammatory steroid around the surgical area before lung surgery reduces pain after the procedure. If it works, it could help patients recover more comfortably after thoracoscopic lung surgery (minimally invasive lung surgery using small cameras).
