First seen May 15, 2026 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study tests two methods to control pain during a medical procedure called thoracoscopy, which looks at the lungs. One method uses ultrasound to numb specific back muscles, and the other numbs the inside of the chest. The goal is to see which approach reduces the need for strong pain medicine and helps patients recover faster. About 100 adults will take part.
