New study aims to ease pain after lung surgery

NCT ID NCT07254650

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests if giving a long-lasting numbing medicine in two different places around the ribs and chest wall can reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after robotic lung surgery. About 300 adults having this surgery will be randomly assigned to receive the numbing medicine in one of three ways: around the ribs, under a chest muscle, or both. Researchers will track pain scores and recovery for three days after surgery to find the best approach.
