Comparing two nerve blocks for lung surgery pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (serratus posterior plane block and erector spine plane block) to see which one provides better pain relief after lung surgery done with a camera (VATS). It may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for lung surgery using a tiny camera (VATS).
- You are 20 years or older.
- Your BMI is 35 or less (your weight in relation to your height is not too high).
- The nerve block can be placed successfully by your doctor.
- Your surgery and recovery go as planned without major complications.

This study compares two types of nerve blocks—SPSIP and SAP—to see which one works better for pain after a type of lung surgery called VATS. If you are having this surgery and match the criteria below, you may be able to join this trial to help doctors find the best pain relief method.
This trial tests two nerve-block methods to see which provides better pain control after minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS). If you qualify, you would receive one of the blocks to help reduce pain and possibly speed recovery.
This study compares two different pain-blocking techniques for a specific type of lung surgery. It aims to see which one provides better pain relief for patients who are awake during the procedure.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (ESP block vs. TPVB) to see which better reduces pain right after surgery and long-term pain after video-assisted lung surgery. The goal is to find the best option to help patients recover with less pain.
