Could a different anesthesia stop chronic cough after lung surgery?
NCT ID NCT07190664
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study compares different anesthesia methods to see if they can prevent chronic cough after video-assisted lung surgery. 228 lung cancer patients will be randomly assigned to different airway management strategies during surgery. Researchers will track cough severity, duration, and quality of life for up to a year after the operation.
