New pain block may cut opioid use after chest surgery
NCT ID NCT07462273
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new type of nerve block, called RISS, to see if it helps control pain after video-assisted chest surgery. 90 adults were randomly assigned to receive either the RISS block plus general anesthesia or general anesthesia alone. The goal was to see if the block reduces pain and the need for opioid painkillers, helping patients recover faster.
