This procedure is usually performed in patients with various lung diseases such as lung masses, pleural effusions, or lung biopsies. Lung mass, pleural effusion, or lung biopsy condidates undergoing vats surgery

Interventions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Postoperative pain intensity at 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery based on the visual analog scale (VAS). Timepoint: At 2, 6, 12, 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: Using a visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain by a pain assessor who is unaware of the patient grouping.;Changes in vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation) in the hours after surgery. Timepoint: Measurement by pain assessor at 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: % -mmhg-bpm.;Possible complications with the block, such as hematoma, pneumothorax, and hypotension. Timepoint: Clinical assessment and recording during the 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: Incidence percentage.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Amount of pain medication used within 24 hours after surgery. Timepoint: Record the total amount of painkillers prescribed, such as diclofenac, acetaminophen, or other narcotics, in the patient's record within 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: Units based on milligrams, for example 2 mg of morphine intravenously three hours after surgery.
