No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if an anesthesia technique called serratus anterior plane block may provide additional pain relief for the chest wall after lung surgery. The study will evaluate the effect the serratus anterior plane block technique has on the need for opioids after surgery,the level of pain during recovery, and other aspects of recovery, like whether the patient has nausea and their ability to breathe deeply. The effects of the serratus anterior plane block will be compared to the effects of an inactive (sham) block.

Conditions
