Comparison of Erector Spinae Plane Block With Thoracic Paravertebral Block for Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

May 9, 2019 updated by: Ali Ahiskalioglu, Ataturk University

Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Thoracic Paravertebral Block on Postoperative Pain for Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) is a newly described and effective interfascial plane block for thoracic and abdominal surgery. It was first described by Forero et al. in 2016, effectiveness being reported in four cases. The paravertebral block has been successfully used in various surgical patient groups for purposes of anesthesia or postoperative pain management such as thoracotomy, breast surgery and abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to compare the analgesic effects of erector spinae plane block and paravertebral block in patients undergoing video assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
