First seen Feb 06, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study looks at whether using ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for pain relief after major abdominal surgery can lower the chance of lung complications. It will follow 500 adults aged 65 and older who are having elective surgery. The choice of pain management is made by the care team, not the study. Researchers will track lung problems, hospital stays, and recovery for 30 days.
