Filter by:The aim of the trial is to study the efficacy of bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) in managing perioperative pain in patients who undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy
To improve the outcome after surgery, effective pain control is needed. The aim of the current study was to compare the efficacy of ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block versus the intra articular injection of local anesthetic for post-operative analgesia in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy.
This study investigates the effectiveness of the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in pain management of patients undergoing PNL.
The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the Erector spinae plane (ESP) block versus thoracic paravertebral (TPV) block in the post-operative pain control after radical mastectomy.
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) is a bypass method performed on the working heart. Pain is a frequently seen side effect experienced following this surgery. Erector spinae plane block is our analgesia method that the investigators routinely perform prior to the surgery to overcome this problem. In this method, analgesic medication is given via a needle in between the two superficial muscle groups (erector spinae muscles) located in participants back. The investigators believe this method not only provides pain relief, but also is beneficial (dilating) on the vessels that will be used for bypassing the clogged vessels during the surgery. The investigators aimed to measure some parameters in this routine procedure before and after performing the analgesic method with an ultrasound (imaging with sound waves).
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy of erector spinae plane block (ESP) for postoperative pain management in cardiac surgery patients.
Lumbar spinae stenosis surgery is a frequent intervention resulting in important postoperative pain. Management of this postoperative pain is thus important. Different pain management therapies exist. The erector spinae plane (ESP) block was described in 2016. It involves the injection of local anesthetics into the interfascial plane, deep to erector spinae muscle, allowing the blockade of the dorsal and ventral rami of the thoracic spinal nerves. It was initially proposed for analgesia of costal fractures, pulmonary lobectomy and thoracic vertebrae. The ESP block (ESPB) could probably be extended to a large number of surgical procedures. ESPB has so far not been investigated in lumbar spinae stenosis surgery.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of bilateral erector spinae plane (ESP) blocks after lumbar and lumbo-sacral spine surgery by assessing postoperative pain scores and opiate requirements as the primary outcome measures. We are aiming to investigate how ESP blocks, performed under ultrasound guidance at the T12 vertebral level, contribute to postoperative pain control. This will be determined by measuring numerical rating pain scores repeatedly following surgery and opiate consumption until patient discharge from hospital. These primary outcome measures will be compared between a treatment group of participants, who will receive ESP blocks and a control group who will receive a sham block. Our primary hypothesis is that ESP blocks significantly reduce postoperative pain and opiate requirements
Pain is considered to be subjective, however in children it is believed to be felt rather than expressed, because they often depend on the caregiver for their safety and well-being. There is significant pain after thoracotomy surgery because of pleural and muscular damage, ribcage disruption, and intercostal nerve damage during surgery, which if not effectively managed, it will lead to various systemic complications; pulmonary (atelectasis, pneumonia, and stasis of bronchial secretions), cardiovascular (increased oxygen consumption and tachycardia), musculoskeletal (muscle weakness), increased neuro-hormonal response and prolonged hospital stay. So adequate and sufficient post-operative analgesia for paediatric patients is mandatory. The use of highly potent opioids for paediatric cardiac anaesthesia has gained widespread popularity during the last 20 years.In addition to the important advantage of hemodynamic stability, the large-dose opioid-based anaesthetic techniques also blunt the stress response, However, large doses can cause oversedation, respiratory depression, and prolonged mechanical ventilation after surgery. Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB), recently developed by Forero et al, is a novel technique in management of thoracic neuropathic pain guided by ultrasound. It became popular because it is much safer and easily administered than other alternative regional techniques as thoracic paravertebral and thoracic epidural block. To our knowledge, Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) performed in aortic coarcitectomy operations has not been investigated yet.This has encouraged the performance of the present study.
The proposed mechanism of action of the ESPB is via blockade of the dorsal and ventral rami of the spinal nerves and sympathetic nerve fibers. Radiographic evidence suggests that local anesthetic injected into at the ESP spreads both cranially and caudally as the plane is continuous along the vertebral column . ESPB reportshave demonstrated analgesia at cervical, thoracic, and lumbar levels for procedures such aspyeloplasty, lipoma excision, breast reconstruction,malignant mesothelioma, inguinal hernia repairs, and hip reconstructions
