RESUMEN
ABSTRACT: With the advancements in regional anesthesia and ultrasound techniques, the use of non-neuraxial blocks like the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been increasing in cardiac surgeries with promising outcomes. A total of 3,264 articles were identified through a literature search. Intervention was defined as ESPB. Comparators were no regional technique performed or sham blocks. Four studies with a total of 226 patients were included. Postoperative opioid consumption was lower in the group that received ESPB than the group that did not (weighted mean difference [WMD]: -204.08; 95% CI: -239.98 to -168.19; P < 0.00001). Intraoperative opioid consumption did not differ between the two groups (WMD: -398.14; 95% CI: -812.17 to 15.98; P = 0.06). Pain scores at 0 hours were lower in the group that received ESPB than the group that did not (WMD: -1.27; 95% CI: -1.99 to -0.56; P = 0.0005). Pain scores did not differ between the two groups at 4-6 hours (WMD: -0.79; 95% CI: -1.70 to 0.13; P = 0.09) and 12 hours (WMD: -0.83; 95% CI: -1.82 to 0.16; P = 0.10). Duration of mechanical ventilation in minutes was lower in the group that received ESPB than the group that did not (WMD: -45.12; 95% CI: -68.82 to -21.43; P = 0.0002). Given the limited number of studies and the substantial heterogeneity of measured outcomes and interventions, further studies are required to assess the benefit of ESPB in midline sternotomies.

BACKGROUND: Inadequate acute postoperative pain control after modified radical mastectomy (MRM) can compromise pulmonary function. This work aimed to assess the postoperative pulmonary effects of a single-shot thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in female patients undergoing MRM. METHODS: This prospective, randomized comparative trial was conducted on 40 female American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) II-III, aged 18 to 50 years undergoing MRM under general anesthesia (GA). Patients were divided into two equal groups (20 in each group): Group I received ESPB and Group II received TPVB. Each group received a single shot with 20 ml volume of 0.5% bupivacaine. RESULTS: Respiratory function tests showed a comparable decrease in forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume (FEV1) from the baseline in the two groups. Group I had a lower FEV1/FVC ratio than Group II after 6 h. Both groups were comparable regarding duration for the first postoperative analgesic request (P value = 0.088), comparable postoperative analgesic consumption (P value = 0.855), and stable hemodynamics with no reported side effects. CONCLUSION: Both ultrasound guided ESPB and TPVB appeared to be effective in preserving pulmonary function during the first 24 h after MRM. This is thought to be due to their pain-relieving effects, as evidenced by decreased postoperative analgesic consumption and prolonged time to postoperative analgesic request in both groups.

BACKGROUND: Our aim was to observe the effects of local infiltration analgesia (LIA) or erector spinae plane block (ESPB) methods, which we applied preemptively in patients who were scheduled for surgery with a lumbotomy surgical incision and on intraoperative remifentanil consumption, and to compare the postoperative numerical rating scale (NRS), morphine demand, consumption, and pain degrees. METHODS: Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists I to III patients aged 18 to 75 years who were due to be operated on with a lumbotomy surgical incision were included in the study. The present study was conducted via prospective, randomized controlled, double-blind trials. After the induction of standard anesthesia, LIA was applied to 30 patients and ESPB was applied to 30 patients preemptively. The dose of remifentanil consumed in the intraoperative period was measured, and the hemodynamic parameters were measured every 5 minutes. Morphine bolus treatment with the postoperative patient-controlled analgesia and rescue analgesia with paracetamol were planned for the patients. Postoperative morphine and additional analgesia consumption, NRS, hemodynamic parameters, and complications were recorded for 48 hours. RESULTS: There was no difference between the groups in terms of demographic and hemodynamic data. The mean consumption of remifentanil was measured as 455â ±â 165.23 µg in the intraoperative ESPB group and 296.67â ±â 110.59 µg in the LIA group, and a statistical difference was observed (Pâ =â .001). In the postoperative follow-ups, the ESPB group drug consumption and NRS score averages were significantly lower at all times (Pâ =â .01; patient-controlled analgesia-morphine, 41.93â ±â 14.47 mg vs 57.23â ±â 15.5 mg and additional analgesic-paracetamol: 2.1â ±â 1.06 vs 4.27â ±â 1.14 g). The mean duration of additional analgesic intake of the groups was 10.6â ±â 8.1 in the LIA group, while it was 19.33â ±â 8.87 in the ESPB group, a significant difference. The patient satisfaction questionnaire was also significantly in favor of ESPB (Pâ =â .05). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, it has been shown that the intraoperative LIA method is more effective in terms of remifentanil consumption and in controlling pain in operations performed with a flank incision, but the ESPB method provides longer and more effective pain control in postoperative follow-ups.

OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the impact of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and intravenous (IV) dexmedetomidine in reduction of perioperative opioid consumption following bariatric surgery and their impact on post-operative recovery, analgesia, and pulmonary functions. DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Tanta University Hospitals, Tanta, Gharboa, Egypt. PATIENTS: Forty obese patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), aged 20-55 years, and eligible for bariatric surgery were included. INTERVENTIONS: Patients randomized into group I (received general anesthesia [GA] with opioid, sham ESPB, and IV normal saline) or group II (received GA [without opioid], ESPB [at T7 level] using 20 mL bupivacaine 0.25 percent and bolus IV dexmedetomidine 1 µg/kg and then 0.25 µg/kg/h). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fentanyl consumption (primary outcome), sevoflurane consumption, recovery time, Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and pulmonary functions (secondary outcomes) were recorded. RESULTS: Perioperative fentanyl (intraoperative, post-operative, and total) consumption and sevoflurane consumption were substantially lower in group II compared to group I (p = 0.010, <0.001, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively). Moreover, recovery time was shorter in group II (p < 0.001). At 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after surgery, group I patients had VAS values considerably higher. Relative to preoperative values, pulmonary function did not significantly alter after surgery. Oxygen desaturation was significantly lower in group II (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The ESPB with IV dexmedetomidine is advantageous for OSAS patients having bariatric surgery as it provides anesthesia and opioid-sparing effect with short recovery, adequate analgesia, and nonsignificant complications. Yet, it had no effect on post-operative pulmonary function.

BACKGROUND: Posterior spinal fusion (PSF) for the correction of idiopathic scoliosis is associated with severe postoperative pain. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been proposed to provide analgesia and reduce opioid consumption. We aimed to investigate the effect of bilateral ultrasound-guided single-shot ESPB on postoperative analgesia in pediatric patients undergoing PSF. METHODS: This double-blinded, randomized controlled trial will enroll 74 AIS patients undergoing elective PSF. Participants will be assigned to the ESPB group or control group at a 1:1 ratio. Patients in the ESPB group will receive ultrasound-guided bilateral ESPB preoperatively, and patients in the control group received sham ESPB using normal saline. The primary joint endpoints are the area under the curve (AUC) of numerical rating scale (NRS) score and opioid consumption in postoperative 24 h. The secondary endpoints are numerical rating scale (NRS) score and opioid consumption at postoperative 0.5, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, and 48 h, rescue analgesia, recovery outcomes, and adverse events. DISCUSSION: At present, studies investigating the effect of ESPB on pediatric patients are still needed. This study focuses on the effect of ESPB on pediatric patients undergoing PSF on postoperative pain control and intends to provide a new strategy of multimodal analgesia management for major spine surgery.

The ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block is an emerging fascial plane block, first described in 2016 for treating thoracic neuropathic pain. Since its introduction, it has been incorporated into multiple surgical procedures and has demonstrated proven benefits such as postoperative analgesia and reduction in opioid consumption. Being a superficial plane block, it avoids complications such as pneumothorax and hematoma, making it a safe mode of analgesia. We report a rare case of hematoma formation following ESP block in a patient who underwent mitral valve repair under cardiopulmonary bypass.

Purpose: To compare the impact of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and paravertebral block (PVB) on the quality of postoperative recovery (QoR) of patients following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Methods: A total of 110 patients who underwent elective LSG under general anesthesia were randomly assigned to receive either ultrasound-guided bilateral ESPB or PVB at T8 levels. Before anesthesia induction, 40 mL of 0.33% ropivacaine was administered. The primary outcome was the QoR-15 score at 24 hours postoperatively. Results: At 24 hours postoperatively, the QoR-15 score was comparable between the ESPB and PVB groups (131 (112-140) vs. 124 (111-142.5), P = 0.525). Consistently, there was no significant difference in QoR-15 scores at 48 hours postoperatively, numerical rating scale (NRS) pain scores at any postoperative time points, time to first ambulation, time to first anal exhaust, postoperative cumulative oxycodone consumption, and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) between the two groups (all P > 0.05). No nerve block-related complications were observed in either group. Conclusion: In patients undergoing LSG, preoperative bilateral ultrasound-guided ESPB yields comparable postoperative recovery to preoperative bilateral ultrasound-guided PVB.

BACKGROUND: Multimodal analgesia is now widely practised to minimise postoperative opioid consumption while optimising pain control. The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the analgesic efficacy of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgeries. This will be determined by perioperative opioid consumption, subjective pain scores, and incidences of postoperative nausea and vomiting. METHODS: The authors systemically searched electronic databases for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) published up to February 2023 comparing ESPB with other adjuvant analgesic techniques in laparoscopic abdominal surgeries. Nine randomised controlled trials encompassing 666 subjects were included in our study. RESULTS: ESPB was shown to reduce postoperative opioid consumption [mean difference (MD) of -5.95 mg (95% CI: -8.86 to -3.04; P <0.0001); I2 =89%], intraoperative opioid consumption MD of -102.4 mcg (95% CI: -145.58 to -59.21; P <0.00001); I2 =39%, and incidence of nausea [RR 0.38 (95% CI: 0.25-0.60; P <0.0001); I2 =0%] and vomiting [RR 0.32 (95% CI: 0.17-0.63; P =0.0009); I2 =0%] in laparoscopic abdominal surgeries. Subgroup analysis on laparoscopic colorectal surgeries further showed reduction in postoperative pain scores MD of -0.68 (95% CI: -0.94 to -0.41); P <0.00001; I2 =0%]. CONCLUSIONS: This study concludes that ESPB is a valuable technique with proven efficacy to potentially promote faster postoperative recovery through optimising pain control while minimising opioid requirements.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) as a rescue therapy in the recovery room. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This single-center historical cohort study included patients who received either ESPB or intravenous meperidine for pain management in the recovery room. Patients' numeric rating scale (NRS) scores and opoid consumptions were evaluated. RESULTS: One hundred and eight patients were included in the statistical analysis. Sixty-two (57%) patients received ESPB postoperatively (pESPB) and 46 (43%) patients were managed with IV meperidine boluses only (IV). The cumulative meperidine doses administered were 0 (0-40) and 30 (10-80) mg for the pESPB and IV groups, respectively (p < 0.001). NRS scores of group pESPB were significantly lower than those of Group IV on T30 and T60. CONCLUSION: ESPB reduces the frequency of opioid administration and the amount of opioids administered in the early post-operative period. When post-operative rescue therapy is required, it should be considered before opioids.
OBJETIVO: Evaluar el efecto del bloqueo del plano erector espinal (ESPB) como terapia de rescate en la sala de recuperación. MÉTODO: Este estudio de cohortes histórico de un solo centro incluyó a pacientes que recibieron ESPB o meperidina intravenosa para el tratamiento del dolor en la sala de recuperación. Se evaluaron las puntuaciones de la escala de calificación numérica (NRS) de los pacientes y los consumos de opiáceos. RESULTADOS: En el análisis estadístico se incluyeron 108 pacientes. Recibieron ESPB 62 (57%) pacientes y los otros 46 (43%) fueron manejados solo con bolos de meperidina intravenosa. Las dosis acumuladas de meperidina administradas fueron 0 (0-40) y 30 (10-80) mg para los grupos de ESPB y de meperidina sola, respectivamente (p < 0.001). Las puntuaciones de dolor del grupo ESPB fueron significativamente más bajas que las del grupo de meperidina sola en T30 y T60. CONCLUSIONES: El ESPB reduce la frecuencia de administración de opiáceos y la cantidad de estos administrada en el posoperatorio temprano. Cuando se requiera terapia de rescate posoperatoria, se debe considerar antes que los opiáceos.

BACKGROUND: The Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) reduces postoperative pain after several types of abdominal laparoscopic surgeries. There is sparse data on the effect of ESPB in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. The purpose of this study was to test the postoperative analgesic efficacy of an ESPB for this procedure. METHODS: In this prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled study, adult patients undergoing laparoscopic ventral hernia repair were randomly assigned to either bilateral preoperative ESPB with catheters at the level of Th7 (2 × 30 ml of either 2.5 mg/ml ropivacaine or saline), with postoperative catheter top ups every 6 h for 24 h. The primary outcome was rescue opioid consumption during the first hour postoperatively. Secondary outcomes were total opioid consumption at 4 h and 24 h, pain scores, nausea, sedation, as well as Quality of Recovery 15 (QoR-15) and the EuroQol-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) during the first week. RESULTS: In total, 64 patients were included in the primary outcome measure. There was no significant difference in rescue opioid consumption (oral morphine equivalents (OME)) at one hour postoperatively, with the ESPB group 26.9 ± 17.1 mg versus 32.4 ± 24.3 mg (mean ± SD) in the placebo group (p= 0.27). There were no significant differences concerning the secondary outcomes during the seven-day observation period. Seven patients received a rescue block postoperatively, providing analgesia in five patients. CONCLUSION: We found no difference in measured outcomes between ESPB and placebo in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. Future studies may evaluate whether a block performed using higher concentration and/or at a different thoracic level provides more analgesic efficacy. TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT04438369 ; 18/06/2020. .

Inability to remain motionless owing to pain during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may increase the need for sedation and analgesia. Here, we present a case where ultrasound-guided sacral erector spinae plane block (ESPB) was used successfully for pain management during an MRI in a patient suffering from severe sacral pain. Sacral ESPB was performed with a total of 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine at the level of the intermediate sacral crest. The patient achieved sensory block in the L5-S4 dermatomes without motor block, resulting in complete pain relief. This case report highlights the feasibility of ultrasound-guided sacral ESPB as a potential pain management technique.

Background/aim: In open heart surgery, sternotomy causes inflammation in tissues, and inflammation causes postoperative pain. This study aims to examine the effects of bilateral erector spinae plane (ESP) blocks on postoperative extubation time and laboratory parameters in open heart surgery. Materials and methods: The study was managed using retrospective data from 85 patients who underwent open-heart surgery. Patients who received intravenous analgesia and were transferred to the intensive care unit with intubation were included in the study. Two groups were formed: those who received preoperative bilateral ESP block (ESB) and those nonblock (NB). Statistical significance was investigated between ESB and NB in terms of extubation time and laboratory parameters. Results: The postoperative extubation time for group NB was significantly longer at 360 (300-420) min compared to the observed 270 (240-390) min for ESB (p: 0.006). The length of stay in the intensive care unit was also longer for group NB at 4 (3-5) days compared to 3 (3-4) days for ESB (p: 0.001). Ejection fraction values, cardiopulmonary bypass, and aortic cross-clamp times were similar in both groups. Postoperative 24 h troponin I levels were higher for group NB at 0.94 (0.22-2.70) mcg/L compared to 0.16 (0.06-1.40) mcg/L for group ESB (p: 0.016). Conclusion: It would be useful for anesthesiologists to know that erector spinae plane blocks applied in the preoperative period in cardiac surgeries not only shorten the mechanical ventilation and hospitalization times but also provide lower troponin values in the postoperative period patient follow-ups.
