Ultrasound-guided erector spine plane block (ESPB) utilization in managing refractory renal colic pain in the emergency department / 世界急诊医学杂志（英文）

ABSTRACT

@#Due to the acute and terrible pain that patients with renal colic experience, the most essential therapeutic priority for these patients in the emergency department (ED) is to reduce pain.[1] Although numerous medications are utilized to reduce pain in patients with acute renal colic, no therapy has yet been developed to totally and quickly relieve pain.[2,3] Intravenous opioids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly administered intravenously to control pain in these patients in the ED; however, the need for frequent monitoring for possible complications and relatively slow-acting features render these strategies undesirable.[4]
