TEAS for Ipsilateral Shoulder Pain After Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Lung Surgery

Краткое описание

Shoulder pain is a common problem after certain types of lung surgery called video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). This study examines whether a treatment called transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) can help reduce this pain. TEAS is a non-invasive technique that uses mild electrical stimulation at specific points on the body.Patients who are having VATS lung surgery will be randomly assigned to either receive TEAS before surgery or standard care. Researchers will measure how much shoulder pain patients experience and compare the two groups.The goal is to see if TEAS can help patients feel less pain and recover better after this type of lung surgery.
