STIL block versus RIB with sub-serratus plane block for pain relief after pediatric chest surgery
This study tests whether the STIL plane block provides comparable or better pain relief than the combination of RIB and sub-serratus plane block in children after thoracotomy.
-
Rhomboid Intercostal Block vs Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block for VATS Pain
This study tests two regional anesthesia techniques to see which better reduces postoperative pain after video-assisted thoracic surgery in adults undergoing thoracic procedures.
-
Ultrasound-Guided Rhomboid-Intercostal Block vs Thoracic Paravertebral Block for Pain Control After VATS
This study tests whether the rhomboid-intercostal block (RIB) or the thoracic paravertebral block (PVB) provides better pain relief after a 3-port VATS chest surgery in adults.
-
Liposomal bupivacaine for rhomboid intercostal nerve block to reduce pain after VATS
We will test whether adding long‑acting liposomal bupivacaine to a rhomboid intercostal nerve block reduces pain after video‑assisted thoracoscopic lung surgery in adults.
