Comparing nerve block combinations for robotic lung surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two nerve-block cocktails for pain relief during robotic lung surgery. It aims to find the best combination to reduce pain and need for strong painkillers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You do not have chronic pain or take narcotics before surgery.

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to manage pain during and after a type of lung surgery that removes only part of the lung. It aims to find which block provides better pain relief and recovery.
This study compares two types of numbing medicine (liposomal vs. hydrochloride bupivacaine) injected near the ribs during lung surgery. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief after the operation.
This study compares different pain-relief medications given during lung surgery to see which one controls pain better. It may help people have less post-surgery pain after robotic wedge resection or lobectomy.
This trial compares two forms of a numbing medicine (bupivacaine) injected near the spine to reduce pain after lung surgery. It aims to find which works better for controlling pain after a lobectomy (removal of a lung lobe).
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.
This study compares two ways to numb the chest area before minimally invasive lung surgery to see which one better controls blood sugar after surgery. It may help you have a smoother recovery.
