Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Ultrasound (US) guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block is one of the interfascial plane blocks that target the dorsal and ventral rami of the spinal nerves. Although there is no sufficient evidence for the spread of local anesthetic to the ventral rami, recent anecdotal reports demonstrated effective postoperative analgesia after thoracic and lumbar surgeries affecting both the ventral and dorsal rami .According to a previous study, Erector Spinae Plane block has allowed a reduction in opioid consumption and excellent pain control in partial nephrectomy.
Paravertebral block (PVB) is a technique where a local anesthetic is deposited into a space found on both sides of the spine, called the paravertebral space. It is a block with a dermatomal distribution of pain relief depending on the level of the spine at which the block is sited and the quantity and type of deposited local anesthetic.
PVB is effective for pain relief in the thoracic, abdominal and limb regions .

Study Groups

erector spinae arm
ultrasound guided erector spinae block
erector spinae block
ultrasound probe is placed parallel to the vertebral spine at T4 level and shifted 3 cm laterally to obtain the appropriate visualization. Under aseptic precautions, the needle is inserted and advanced perpendicular to the skin in all planes to contact the transverse process of the vertebra at a variable depth of 2-4 cm from the skin depending on the build of the individual. At this point, the needle tip lies between the erector spinae muscle and transverse process. After negative aspiration, 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine is administered in cephalad and caudal directions.
thoracic paravertebral arm
ultrasound guided thoracic paravertebral block.
thoracic paravertebral block
ultrasound probe is placed parallel to the vertebral spine at T4 level and shifted 2-3 cm laterally to obtain the appropriate visualization. Following the identification of pleura, transverse process and paravertebral space, the needle is inserted cranial to caudal direction using in-plane approach . After confirming the displacement of pleura with 0.5-1 ml of local anesthetic (LA), 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine is administered for the block.
