Description

The ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) shows controversial data of efficacy due to variable local anesthetic distribution. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of ESPB in elective lumbar spinal fusion surgery patients with different surgical approaches.. Retrospectively were included 45 elective lumbar transpedicular fusion (TPF) surgery patients with different approaches (posterior approach(TPF) or combined posterior and anterior approach (TPF+ALIF)) divided into 2 groups:general anesthesia (GA,n=24) and general anesthesia combined with ESPB (GA+ESPB,n=21). Primary outcome was to analyse the efficacy of ESPB in different surgical approaches in terms of pain intensity in the first 48hours. Secondary–fentanyl free patients and opioid consumption in the first 24hours postoperatively. Comparative analysis was performed (SPSS®v.28.0).P
