Abstract

Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is one of the commonly preferred regional anesthesia techniques in the recent past for various procedures including spine surgeries. The main advantages of ESPB are the ease of performing the technique and the lesser chance of complications. Many studies have proven that ESPB plays an important role in reducing perioperative opioid consumption, postoperative nausea and vomiting, as well as the length of stay in the hospital. Thus it has been adopted as one of the measures for the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol. Nevertheless, the role of bi-level ESPB and a continuous catheter technique are the major research gaps and thus require further research in this population. The details of these two methods are discussed elaborately here.
