Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a thoracic wall block that has been used frequently in recent years. It was aimed to compare the analgesic efficacy of bupivacaine in different volumes for ESPB in patients undergoing thoracotomy. |
Correctly cite ‘To our knowledge, there are no studies comparing ESPB block applications using different local anesthetic volumes after thoracotomy. However, in a case series with different volumes, it was reported that the block level increased up to 9 dermatomes in a case in which 30 ml of local anesthetic was applied [4]. In studies conducted to determine the optimal level at which volume expansion can be achieved, it has been shown that this volume varies in a wide range such as 2.5 mL/ and 6.6 mL per dermatome, while the median value is 3.4 mL [5]’ should be in the form. |
