Abstract
PURPOSE Major spinal surgery causes severe pain. We examined the ability of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) to alleviate pain after posterior spinal fusion (PSF) in paediatric scoliosis patients. METHODS Seventy-two patients who underwent PSF were randomized into a preoperative ultrasound-guided ESPB group or a no-block control group. The composite primary outcome was the area under the curve (AUC) of the numerical rating scale (NRS) score in the first 24 h after surgery and the number of parent-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) boluses administered 24 h after surgery. The secondary outcomes included the NRS score, opioid consumption, rescue analgesia, adverse events, and quality of recovery. RESULTS The AUC-NRS at rest was 62 (13) in the ESPB group and 89 (13) in the control group (P < 0.001). There were 15 (5) 24-h PCIA boluses administered in the ESPB group and 30 (7) in the control group (P < 0.001). Compared with those in the control group, the NRS scores at rest were lower in the ESPB group at 0, 3, 6, and 9 h postoperatively, and the NRS scores during movement were lower in the ESPB group at 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 h postoperatively. The ESPB group showed a lower need for PCIA than did the control group at 0-6, 6-12, 12-18 and 1-24 h postoperatively. In the ESPB group, fewer patients required rescue analgesics, and patients exhibited a higher quality of recovery. CONCLUSION Preoperative ESPB improves postoperative analgesia in paediatric scoliosis patients who underwent PSF. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ChiCTR2300074505. DATE OF REGISTRATION August 8, 2023.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Meta-analysis. OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of postoperative pain control between erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and thoracolumbar interfascial plane (TLIP) block in lumbar spine surgery. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and MEDLINE electronic databases were searched for articles containing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between January 1900 and January 2024. We extracted the postoperative mean pain score, the first 24-h postoperative morphine consumption, and their standard deviation from the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using the functions available in the metafor package in R software. We pooled continuous variables using an inverse variance method with a random-effects model and summarized them as standardized mean differences. RESULTS Five RCTs that directly compared the ESPB and TLIP block in lumbar spine surgery were included, enrolling 432 participants randomly into the two groups with 216 participants in each group. The pooled analyses showed that there was no significant difference between the ESPB and TLIP groups in terms of lower pain scores during the early (1 h) (standardized mean difference [SMD] -1.49, 95% confidence interval [CI], -3.10; 0.11), middle (12 h) (SMD -3.12, 95% CI, -6.86; 0.61), and late (24 h) (SMD -1.38, 95% CI, -3.01; 0.24) postoperative periods. There was also no significant difference in the first 24-h postoperative morphine equivalent consumption between the ESPB and TLIP groups (SMD -0.46 mg, 95% CI -1.23; 0.31). CONCLUSION No significant difference was observed between the ESPB and TLIP block in terms of postoperative pain control and 24-h morphine equivalent consumption for lumbar spine surgery.

Abstract
Postoperative care pathways for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion have demonstrated decreases in postoperative opioid consumption, improved pain control, and lead to decreased lengths of stay. Our objective was to implement postoperative steroids to reduce acute postoperative opioid consumption, pain scores, and length of stay. Dosing consisted of intravenous dexamethasone 0.1 mg/kg up to 4 mg per dose for a total of three doses at 8, 16, and 24 h postoperatively. As part of a quality initiative, we compared three cohorts of patients. The initial retrospective epidural cohort (EPI) (n = 59) had surgeon placed epidural catheters with infusion of ropivacaine 0.1% postoperatively for 18-24 h. Following an institutional change in postoperative care, epidural use was discontinued. A second cohort (n = 149), with prospectively collected data, received a surgeon placed erector spinae plane block and wound infiltration with a combination of liposomal and plain bupivacaine (LB). A third cohort (n = 168) was evaluated prospectively. This cohort received a surgeon placed erector spinae plane block and wound infiltration with liposomal and plain bupivacaine and additionally received postoperative dexamethasone for three doses (LB + D). Compared to the LB cohort, the LB + D cohort demonstrated statistically significant decreases in oral milligram morphine equivalents per kilogram at 0-24, 24-48, and 48-72 h. There was a statistically significant difference in median pain scores at 24-48 and 48-72 h in LB + D versus LB. The LB + D cohort's median length of stay in hours was significantly less compared to the LB cohort (52 h vs. 70 h, p < 0.0001). Postoperative intravenous dexamethasone was added to an established postoperative care pathway for patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis resulting in decreased VAS pain scores, opioid consumption, and shorter length of stay.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain management is essential after discectomy, the surgical treatment for lumbar disc herniation. This study evaluated the effect of sacral erector spinae plane block (SESPB) versus standard analgesic methods on postoperative analgesia and opioid consumption in lumbar discectomy operations. METHODS Over 18 years of age, ASA 1-3 group, 54 patients undergoing elective lumbar discectomy were included in the prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, study. They were randomly divided into groups, SESPB and non-block (control). Both groups completed surgery under general anesthesia. At the end of the surgery, group SESPB received a bilateral 20 cc block with 0.25% bupivacaine at the level of the second sacral vertebra. Both groups received tramadol via a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device. The primary outcome was total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after surgery. Pain assessment by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), rescue analgesic requirements, time to first rescue analgesic requirement and adverse effects were recorded 24 hours postoperatively. RESULTS Total tramadol consumption was 168.8±143 mg (P<0.04) higher in the control group. The first six-hour VAS scores and the number of rescue analgesic users were lower in the SESPB group (P<0.01). The first rescue analgesic use time was 440±140.3 minutes in SESPB group and 47.5±116.1 minutes in control group (P<0.01). Nausea-vomiting was more frequent in the control group (P<0.01) and patient satisfaction was higher in the SESPB group (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS In lumbar discectomy surgery, ultrasound-guided SESPB provided adequate analgesia by reducing opioid consumption and pain scores without complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic nephrectomy is a commonly utilized surgical approach for the management of renal cancer. Despite its widespread acceptance, postoperative pain management remains a significant challenge for many patients undergoing this procedure. Traditional pain management techniques, including opioid and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug administration, may not provide adequate pain relief and may result in adverse effects. In recent years, erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has emerged as a promising regional anesthesia technique due to its simplicity, safety, and potential efficacy in reducing postoperative pain. ESPB has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing postoperative pain in various surgical procedures. However, the efficacy of ESPB in laparoscopic nephrectomy for renal cancer has not been extensively studied. As such, further investigation is necessary to determine the potential benefits of ESPB in this context. The addition of adjuvants such as dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone to nerve blocks has been shown to improve both the duration and quality of the block. Multiple studies have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of these adjuvants in reducing postoperative pain and opioid consumption and improving patient satisfaction. The use of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone as adjuvants for nerve blocks represents a promising approach for enhancing regional anesthesia and analgesia. In light of these findings, we have incorporated dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone into our nerve block protocol. METHODS This study is a randomized controlled trial conducted at a single center, with 50 participants being randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the ESPB group or the control group. The trial aims to investigate the efficacy of ESPB in patients diagnosed with kidney cancer who are scheduled for laparoscopic nephrectomy. The primary outcome measure is the total consumption of intraoperative sufentanil. Secondary outcomes include the VAS score at rest and during coughing at 1 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after surgery; total intraoperative remifentanil consumption; the number of times rescue analgesia is required; and the incidence of nausea and vomiting in the first 24 h after surgery. This study is registered for a duration of 1 year and is being conducted in China. DISCUSSION The objective of our study is to evaluate the potential benefits of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in patients undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomy, with a focus on the impact of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone as adjuvants on the quality and duration of the block, as well as postoperative pain and opioid consumption. By investigating the effects of these adjuvants in the context of ESPB, we hope to contribute to the growing body of literature on the use of adjuvants in nerve blocks and provide further insight into the potential benefits of this approach for improving patient outcomes following laparoscopic nephrectomy. This trial was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University. TRIAL REGISTRATION China Clinical Trial Register ChiCTR2300068578 .

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted to assess efficacy and safety of bilateral ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for postoperative analgesia in patients receiving spine surgery. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and CENTRAL databases were searched by 2 reviewers independently to identify randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of ultrasound-guided ESPB for pain management in patients undergoing spine surgery. For meta-analysis, mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were selected for continuous data, and risk ratio (RR) and 95% CI were selected for dichotomous variables. RESULTS A total of 25 randomized controlled trials including 1917 patients (873 in ESPB group and 874 in control group) were eligible for inclusion. At rest, ESPB was associated with significantly lower pain intensity at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours compared with the control group. During movement, ESPB was associated with significantly lower pain intensity at 0, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours compared with the control group. Significantly reduced opioid consumption (MD = -6.29, 95% CI [-8.16, 4.41], P < 0.001), prolonged time for first rescue analgesia (MD = 7.51, 95% CI [3.47, 11.54], P < 0.001), fewer patients needing rescue analgesia (RR = 0.34, 95% CI [0.28, 0.43], P < 0.0001), improved patient satisfaction (MD = 1.34, 95% CI [0.88, 1.80], P < 0.001), and shorter length of hospital stay (MD = -0.38, [95% CI -0.50, -0.26], P < 0.001) were demonstrated after use of ESPB. Additionally, ESPB was associated with decreased risks of any adverse event (RR = 0.51, 95% CI [0.43, 0.60], P < 0.001) and postoperative nausea and vomiting events (RR = 0.39, 95% CI [0.31, 0.49], P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound-guided ESPB is an effective adjunctive technique with good tolerability for multimodal analgesia in management of pain in patients undergoing spine surgery.
