The impact of thoracic paravertebral nerve block at different positions on pain relief in patients undergoing single-port thoracoscopic partial lung resection: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Key Points

• The aim is to evaluate how different positions of thoracic paravertebral nerve block affect pain relief in patients undergoing lung surgery.
• Conducting a randomized controlled trial
• Involving patients undergoing single-port thoracoscopic partial lung resection
• Testing different nerve block positions
• Assessing pain relief outcomes post-surgery
• Expected to compare pain levels across different block positions
• Aim to identify the most effective position for pain relief
• Will provide insights on optimal anesthesia techniques in thoracic surgery
