Brief Summary: Cancer-related pain is a common and challenging problem in patients with lung cancer, often requiring long-term pain management. Conventional pain treatments, including systemic medications, may not provide adequate relief or may cause significant side effects.

The erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a regional anesthesia technique that can help reduce pain by delivering local anesthetic near the nerves supplying the chest wall. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intermittent ESP block administered through a subcutaneous port for controlling cancer-related pain in patients with lung cancer.

Eligible patients with lung cancer and moderate to severe pain will receive intermittent ESP block injections via a subcutaneous port as part of their pain management plan. Pain intensity, analgesic requirements, and potential side effects will be assessed over time.

The results of this study may help determine whether intermittent ESP block via a subcutaneous port is a useful and feasible option for improving pain control and quality of life in patients with lung cancer.
Detailed Description: Cancer-related pain in patients with lung cancer is often multifactorial and may be difficult to control using conventional systemic analgesic therapies alone. Regional anesthesia techniques have increasingly been explored as adjunctive approaches to improve pain control while minimizing systemic opioid exposure.

The erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a fascial plane block in which local anesthetic is injected adjacent to the erector spinae muscle, allowing spread to the dorsal and ventral rami of spinal nerves. This technique has been reported to provide effective analgesia for thoracic and chest wall pain with a favorable safety profile.

In this study, patients with lung cancer experiencing moderate to severe cancer-related pain will receive intermittent ESP block administered through a subcutaneous port. The port system allows repeated administration of local anesthetic without the need for repeated needle insertion, potentially improving patient comfort and feasibility of long-term pain management.

Pain intensity will be assessed using standardized pain assessment tools at predefined time points. Additional outcomes include changes in analgesic medication requirements, patient-reported comfort, and the occurrence of procedure-related or treatment-related adverse events.

This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of intermittent ESP block via a subcutaneous port as part of a multimodal pain management strategy in patients with lung cancer.
