Efficacy and Safety of Erector Spinal Plane Block (ESPB) for Analgesia in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

November 23, 2020 updated by: Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital

Efficacy and Safety of Erector Spinal Plane Block (ESPB) for Intraoperative and Postoperative Analgesia in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy : A Randomized, Single-blind,Controlled Clinical Trial.

Purpose: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erector spinal block (ESB) for analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).

Method: This study is a randomized, single-blind, controlled clinical trial. Pre-operative ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block will be performed in the ESPB group. Vertebral side block will be performed in the VSB group. And the control group will receive local anaesthesia after the surgery. Intraoperative and postoperative analgesia effect and side effects will be compared between the three groups.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Erector spinal plane block group (ESPB group)
After induction of general anesthesia, pre-operative ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block will be performed in the ESPB group.
After induction of general anesthesia, pre-operative ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block/ vertebral side block will be performed in the ESPB/VSB group. Local block will be performed at the surgical incisions after the surgery under general anesthesia. All the intervention will be performed without patients' awareness.
Other Names:
  • Vertebral side block
  • Local block
Active Comparator: Vertebral side block group (VSB group)
After induction of general anesthesia, pre-operative ultrasound-guided bilateral vertebral side block will be performed in the VSB group.

Local block will be performed at the surgical incisions after the surgery under general anesthesia. All the intervention will be performed without patients' awareness.
Other Names:
  • Vertebral side block
  • Local block
Placebo Comparator: Local block group (LB group)
Local block will be performed at the surgical incisions after the surgery under general anesthesia.
