Persistent Pain and Its Impact on Daily Life After Lung Surgery
Pain Trajectories and Pain-Related Functional Interference After Lung Resection: A Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Study
This study will examine how pain changes over the first six months after lung surgery and how it affects daily life. It will include adults scheduled for surgery to remove part or all of a lung.
The main questions are:
- How does pain change from the early days after surgery to three and six months afterward?
- Which factors before surgery and during early recovery are associated with persistent pain?
- How does pain affect walking, coughing, sleep, mood, and everyday activities?
Participants will complete questionnaires before surgery, during their hospital stay, at discharge, and at three and six months after surgery. These questionnaires will assess pain, its effects on daily life, sleep, and emotional well-being. Follow-up after discharge will be conducted by telephone or electronic questionnaires.
Researchers will also collect information from medical records about the type of surgery, surgical incisions, anesthesia, pain relief treatments, and chest drains.
This is an observational study. The research team will not assign pain treatments or change usual care. The findings may help identify patients who need additional pain assessment and support during recovery.

Studie Bevolking
Adults aged 18 years or older scheduled for elective lung resection at Aerospace Center Hospital, Beijing, China, will be consecutively recruited during preoperative assessment. Patients undergoing surgery for benign or malignant lung conditions through video-assisted, robot-assisted, or open approaches will be eligible. Patients with pre-existing chronic pain and those who have received neoadjuvant treatment may participate. Baseline pain and treatment history will be recorded. Participants will be followed through 6 months after surgery to assess pain persistence and pain-related interference with daily life.
