Clinical Trial: Randomized Trial of Erector Spinae Plane Block Using Liposomal Bupivacaine Versus Bupivacaine Hydrochloride on Quality of Recovery for Video-assisted Thoracic Surgery

U.S., Aug. 27 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07141667) titled 'Randomized Trial of Erector Spinae Plane Block Using Liposomal Bupivacaine Versus Bupivacaine Hydrochloride on Quality of Recovery for Video-assisted Thoracic Surgery' on July 21.

Brief Summary: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has emerged as the standard surgical modality for pulmonary tumor. Compared with open thoracotomy, VATS is associated with reduced surgical trauma, attenuated postoperative pain, and a lower incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications. Nevertheless, 27-63% of VATS patients still develop moderate to severe postoperative pain, with the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) remaining at...
