Comparing two methods of nerve block for breast cancer surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief during and after breast cancer surgery. It may help reduce your pain and need for stronger pain medicines.

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for pain control during and after breast surgery. If you are having a mastectomy with lymph node removal, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two nerve-block techniques (SPSIP and ESPB) to see which one provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and improve recovery after a modified radical mastectomy.
This trial compares two types of numbing nerve blocks to help manage pain after breast cancer surgery with lymph node removal. The goal is to find which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks given before a mastectomy (breast removal surgery) to see which one provides better pain relief. If you are having a mastectomy on one side with lymph node removal, you may be able to join.
This study tests two different nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after a mastectomy. If you are having a modified radical mastectomy, you may qualify to help researchers find the most effective way to manage pain after surgery.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (mid-point transverse process to pleura block vs. serratus anterior plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after breast cancer surgery. You would receive one of these blocks before surgery to help manage pain after.
