Study Summary

This trial looks at whether a patient's response to a standardized pain stimulus during anesthesia is linked with post-operative pain levels and opioid consumption.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are scheduled for elective chest surgery (VATS) under general anesthesia, with a health status classified as ASA I, II or III. It's not suitable for those allergic to study drugs, with substance abuse history, chronic use of psychotropic/opioid drugs, psychiatric diseases, heart issues like coronary artery disease or serious arrhythmias.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study looks at how well the NoL index—a pain response indicator—predicts post-surgery pain and opioid need after chest surgery. Researchers will measure this response to a standardized stimulus during anesthesia and compare it to actual pain and opioid use after surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on measuring responses rather than testing new treatments, side effects may be limited to typical surgical and anesthesia risks such as discomfort from the stimulus used in the test or reactions related to standard medications administered.
