Summary

This study looked at 60 adults having lung surgery (VATS) to compare two types of nerve blocks for pain relief: the Edge Laminar Block and the Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block. Researchers measured pain scores, how much opioid painkiller patients needed, and side effects like nausea. The goal is to find which block provides better pain control after surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
nerve block (local anesthetic injection)
What this could lead to
If one block works better, it could lead to less pain and fewer opioids after lung surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study, not a large trial. Results may not apply to all patients or surgeries.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of adult patients (aged 18-75 years) scheduled for elective video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) at \[Your Hospital Name/Institution Name\]. These patients will be categorized based on the regional anesthesia technique received (Edge Laminar Block or Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block) for postoperative pain management. Patients with ASA physical status I-III will be included, ensuring a relatively healthy surgical population.
