Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy.
Main Article Content
Abstract
Postoperative pain encompasses a complex range of sensations and emotions triggered by surgery. Non-pharmacological approaches, such as regional anaesthesia techniques have gained traction for their targeted pain relief and reduced reliance on opioids. The Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) is one such technique showing promise, particularly for thoracic and abdominal surgeries. Our study compares the efficacy, duration and quality of analgesia provided by ESPB and number of rescue analgesics required in the first 48 hour period with conventional method of analgesia in patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).
