Nothing recorded among them since 2026-09-25.
Thoracotomy and video-assisted thoracic surgery procedures are frequently performed in thoracic surgery. It is widely accepted that thoracotomy causes severe acute pain. This prolongs the discharge time of the patients, and increases the frequency of postoperative pulmonary complications and postoperative morbidity. Postoperative acute pain may cause chronic thoracotomy pain in the later period, and may adversely affect the quality of life of the patients. Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has become the standard procedure in minor and major lung surgeries. Postoperative pain is seen in patients undergoing VATS, although it is not as severe as after thoracotomy. As in thoracotomy, this affects the postoperative pulmonary complications and the discharge time of the patients. Likewise, this pain can cause chronic pain.
In this study, it was aimed to analyze the symptoms of chronic pain in the 3rd and 6th months postoperatively in patients who had undergone thoracic surgery.
Patients between the ages of 18-65 years, in the ASA I-II-III risk group, with a BMI between 18-35 kg/m2 and undergoing thoracic surgery will be included in our study.
Patients under the age of 18 years and over the age of 65 years, with an ASA score of IV and above, with a BMI below 18 kg/m2 and above 35 kg/m2, who were operated under emergency conditions, and who received chronic pain treatment will be excluded from the study.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The anaesthetists’ scale of health before surgery: I is healthy, II has a mild illness that is under control, III a severe one, IV a severe illness that is a constant threat to life. V and VI are used for the critically ill and for organ donors.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

The chronic pain findings of the patients who underwent thoracic surgery will be questioned at the postoperative 3rd and 6th months.
Pain scores at 3th months.
Choronic pain symptoms will be assessed using the visual analog scale on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain). Neuropathic pain symptoms (Burning, stabbing, electric shock-like pain, tingling, numbness, pins and needles feeling, hyperalgesia, allodynia, and hypoesthesia) will also be asked to the patients in the 3rd month after surgery.
Time frame: Chronic pain symptoms at 3th months.
Pain scores at 6th months.

Started Sep 2021 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Oct 2024, 36 months after the start.
Of 391 non-industry observational studies under Pain, Postoperative, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 32. This study's planned 36 months is above that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 395 studies reached it within 13 months; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 33.
