Pain reduction after lung surgery using different robot methods
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have an ASA score of 1, 2, or 3 (meaning you are generally healthy or have some controlled health issues)
- You can understand pain assessment instructions
- You agree to take part in the study
- You don't need a second surgery for complications

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
This study tests whether combining a specific type of chest surgery (using small cameras) with numbing injections around nerves reduces pain and the need for strong pain medications after surgery. Researchers want to see if this approach helps patients recover better with less opioid use.
This study compares two different pain-blocking injections given before lung surgery to see which one works better. It may help reduce pain and make recovery more comfortable.
This study looks at how pain sensitivity changes before and after lung surgery. It may help doctors predict and better manage pain after the operation.
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.
This study compares three ways to manage pain after lung surgery: a numbing injection near the spine, an epidural (a thin tube in your back), or standard pain medicine. The goal is to find out which method works best and causes the fewest side effects.
