Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this observational study is to investigate if preoperative quantitative sensory testing, anxiety and depression symptoms, and biological markers are associated with the risk of developing acute and chronic postoperative pain after video-assisted Thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This observational study examine acute and chronic postoperative pain in patients undergoing VATS. In the study preoperative biomarkers, quantitative sensory testing and questionnaires are used to create prediction models for acute and chronic postoperative pain. The study will serve as background information on the risk factors and predictive factors as well as an exploration of the impact of surgical stress from VATS on circulation microRNA and inflammatory mediators.
