Patient position and pain block for lung surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if the position you lie in during a numbing injection for lung surgery affects how well the pain relief works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You are scheduled for elective (non-emergency) lung surgery using small incisions and a camera
- You have an ASA physical status of II, III, or IV (this means you have mild to severe health issues but are stable enough for surgery)
- You can understand and sign a consent form

This trial tests two numbing injections to see which reduces pain medicine use during lung surgery. A special pain monitor guides the treatment. It may help you need fewer opioids during your procedure.
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 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 trial tests whether an ESP block (a type of numbing injection near the spine) can reduce pain after back surgery. It may help you recover with less pain and fewer opioids.
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.
This trial tests two different numbing shots (nerve blocks) to see which one works better for pain after video-assisted lung surgery. One block is placed near the spine, and the other is between the ribs. The goal is to find the best way to keep you comfortable after surgery.
