Two Bupivacaine Concentrations for Erector Spinae Plane Block in Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (ESPB-PNL)
Effects of Two Different Bupivacaine Concentrations in Ultrasound-Guided Thoracic Erector Spinae Plane Block on Postoperative Pain and Inflammatory Biomarkers After Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy
People who undergo percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL), a procedure used to remove kidney stones, often experience pain after surgery. An ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is commonly used to help reduce this pain.
This study compares two different concentrations of bupivacaine, a local anesthetic medication, used during ESPB. Participants undergoing PNL will receive either 0.25% or 0.375% bupivacaine as part of their pain management.
Researchers will compare pain scores, the need for additional pain medication, and changes in blood markers related to inflammation after surgery. The aim of the study is to determine whether one concentration provides better pain control or influences the inflammatory response differently after PNL.

Detaillierte Beschreibung
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) is the standard treatment for large and complex renal stones. Despite its minimally invasive nature, postoperative pain remains an important clinical concern and may adversely affect recovery, mobilization, and patient satisfaction. Ultrasound-guided thoracic erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been increasingly incorporated into multimodal analgesia protocols because of its simplicity, safety profile, and effectiveness in reducing postoperative pain.
The optimal concentration of bupivacaine for ESPB in patients undergoing PNL remains unclear. This study was designed to compare the effects of two different concentrations of bupivacaine (0.25% and 0.375%) administered during ultrasound-guided thoracic ESPB on postoperative pain control and inflammatory response following PNL.
Adult patients scheduled for elective PNL were enrolled. ESPB was performed at the T10 vertebral level under ultrasound guidance before surgery. Participants received 20 mL of either 0.25% or 0.375% bupivacaine. Standard perioperative anesthetic and postoperative analgesic protocols were applied to all participants.
The primary outcome was postoperative pain intensity assessed using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores at predefined postoperative time points. Secondary outcomes included intraoperative fentanyl consumption, postoperative tramadol consumption, patient-controlled analgesia requirements, postoperative nausea and vomiting, patient satisfaction, and perioperative changes in inflammatory biomarkers, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR).
Demographic characteristics, stone-related variables, operative data, and perioperative hemodynamic parameters were recorded. Statistical analyses were performed to compare postoperative pain outcomes, analgesic requirements, and inflammatory biomarker responses between the study groups.
