Overview

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended in a multimodal pain management to reduce pain intensity and to spare opioid use. However, there is a controversy in its use in pleurodesis surgery as it could block the process of pleurodesis in surgical pneumothorax. In addition, NSAIDs could increase the risk of pneumothorax recurrence.

The investigators hypothesized that NSAIDs are safe during pleurodesis with a better pain management without increasing the risk of pneumothorax reccurence.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
