Summary
This study tested whether a special nerve block (erector spinae plane block) can reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after weight-loss surgery in super obese patients (BMI over 50). Sixty adults received either the nerve block or standard local pain medicine. The goal was to see if the block provides safer, effective pain control and lowers opioid use.
