ERECTOR SPINAE PLANE BLOCK

This study looked at two methods to control pain after a mastectomy: a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) and numbing medicine injected into the wound. 37 women took part, and researchers measured how much morphine they needed in the first day after surgery. The goal was to…

This study tested two different nerve blocks (retrolaminar block and erector spinae plane block) to provide pain relief without opioids after lumbar disc surgery. 90 adults undergoing back surgery were randomly assigned to one of the two blocks. The goal was to see which block he…

This study looked at 113 adults who had major lung surgery to see which pain-block method works best. Researchers compared a newer block (erector spinae plane block) with two older methods. They measured pain levels and how much extra morphine patients needed after surgery.

This study tested two different ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to control pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight-loss surgery). Thirty adults were randomly assigned to receive either an erector spinae plane block or a thoracic paravertebral block. The goal was to see …

This study tested whether a nerve block called the erector spinae plane block could reduce pain and opioid use after weight-loss surgery in 60 super obese patients (BMI over 50). Patients received either the nerve block or standard pain medication. The goal was to see if the bloc…

This study tested whether adding dexamethasone or magnesium sulfate to a standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) could provide longer pain relief after total hip replacement. 66 adults received an ultrasound-guided nerve block before surgery. The main goal was to see how long it …

This study tested two types of nerve blocks to manage pain after cancer surgery on the upper belly. 70 adults received either an erector spinae plane block or an external oblique intercostal plane block before surgery. The goal was to see which block reduced the need for morphine…

This study tested whether giving a nerve block (ESPB) before lumbar spine surgery reduces the amount of strong painkiller (remifentanil) needed during the operation. 60 adults having elective disc surgery were split into two groups: one received the block before surgery, the othe…

This study tested whether a special nerve block (erector spinae plane block) could reduce the amount of strong painkillers (opioids) needed after a spinal surgery called selective dorsal rhizotomy in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Thirty children aged 6 to 18 took part. Th…

This study tested three different nerve blocks (TTPB, MTPB, and ESPB) to see which provides the best pain relief after thoracoscopic sympathectomy, a type of chest surgery. Sixty adults were randomly assigned to one of the three blocks. The main goal was to measure how long it to…

This study looked at whether a special nerve block (erector spinae plane block) given before major spinal surgery can help control pain and reduce bleeding during the operation. 120 adults having spinal stabilization surgery were randomly assigned to receive either the nerve bloc…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks (ESPB and MTAPA) to see which provides better pain relief for children aged 2 to 7 after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Fifty children were randomly assigned to receive one of the two blocks after going under general anesthesia. The …

This study looked at whether a specific nerve block (erector spinae plane block) can help control pain after robotic colorectal surgery. Researchers measured how much pain medicine patients needed in the first 24 hours and their pain scores over 3 days. The goal is to reduce opio…

This study tested three different numbing injections (transversus thoracic muscle plane block, erector spinae plane block, and paravertebral block) in 60 adults having video-assisted chest surgery. The goal was to see which method delays the need for extra pain medicine and reduc…

This study looked at two different methods to control pain after lower back surgery. One method uses a nerve block (erector spinae plane block), and the other uses a drug called ketamine along with other pain medicines. The goal was to see which approach helps patients recover be…

This study looked at 60 children aged 2 to 7 having lower abdominal surgery. It compared two ways to manage pain: an erector spinae block and a caudal block. The goal was to see which method provides better pain relief during and after surgery, using a standard pain scale.

This study tested two types of nerve blocks to control pain right after thyroid surgery. Forty adults received either a cervical erector spinae plane block or a cervical plexus block. Researchers measured how much morphine patients needed and how long it took to ask for pain reli…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks—erector spinae plane block and serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block—to see which better reduces opioid painkiller use after breast and armpit surgery. Sixty adults aged 18-80 took part. The goal was to find a safer way …

This study tested a nerve block called ESPB to see if it reduces pain after breast cancer surgery with implant reconstruction. 100 adults having this surgery received either the block or standard care. The goal was to measure pain levels and recovery quality in the first day afte…

This study tested two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks—edge of laminar block (ELB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB)—for pain after video-assisted chest surgery. 70 adults were randomly assigned to one block. The goal was to see which block reduces the need for morphine and del…

This study tested whether a nerve block called erector spinae plane block (ESPB) can improve pain control and recovery after open-heart surgery. 66 adults were randomly assigned to receive either the nerve block or standard intravenous painkillers. Researchers measured pain score…

This study examined whether a person's body mass index (BMI) influences how well a nerve block controls pain after surgery for a slipped disc in the lower back. Researchers measured pain levels in 75 adults at different times after surgery. The goal was to see if higher BMI leads…
