Comparing two pain-block methods for mastectomy recovery
Part of Cancer, Pain, Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 18 and 65 years old.
- You are scheduled for a modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia.
- You are in generally good health (ASA class I, II, or III).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is less than 35.
- You have normal blood clotting and liver/kidney function tests.

This study tests two types of nerve blocks (SPSIP and ESP blocks) to see which one works better for long-term pain after a single-sided breast surgery like mastectomy. It aims to find a safer, more effective way to manage chronic pain after surgery.
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 study tests two different ways of numbing nerves near the chest to reduce pain after mastectomy (breast removal surgery). Both methods use local anesthetic injections, and researchers want to see which one works better for pain control.
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 trial compares two nerve block techniques to control pain after breast cancer surgery. If you are having a mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery with lymph node removal, this study may help reduce your pain and improve recovery.
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.
