Patient position and pain relief from ESPB block
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether the position of patients during a nerve block (ESPB) affects pain relief after video-assisted lung surgery. It aims to find the best way to give the block for better comfort after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a continuous nerve block (ESP block) placed near the spine to control pain after bypass surgery. It aims to see if this block improves recovery and reduces pain.
This trial tests if the position you lie in during a numbing injection for lung surgery affects how well the pain relief works.
This trial compares two different nerve block techniques (ESP and SPSIP blocks) to see which provides better pain relief after VATS (a minimally invasive lung surgery). If you qualify, you would receive one of the blocks before your surgery to help manage pain afterward.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one better controls pain after lung surgery. It may help find a better way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one helps people recover better after lung surgery. It tests a block around the spine versus one near the shoulder blade to improve comfort and recovery.
This trial compares different nerve block techniques to see which provides better pain relief after thoracoscopic (chest scope) surgery. It could help find a way to reduce pain and minimize opioid use during recovery.
