Comparison Between Ultrasound Guided Quadratus Lumborum Block and Erector Spinae Plane Block as an Analgesic Modality in Renal Transplant Donors

Sponsor: Ain Shams University

Summary

Open surgery remains one of the approaches used for those patients requiring partial or radical nephrectomy and is associated with a high incidence of intense immediate postoperative pain (Gupta et al., 2013; Bravi et al., 2019). Erector Spinae Plane block (ESPB) has grown as a standard analgesic approach for thoracic, abdominal, and extremities surgeries because of its speed, ease of execution, minimal risk of hypotension and safety for patients with coagulopathy. Although it is believed that the spinal neurons' ventral and dorsal rami are involved, the exact pathway is yet uncertain (Forero et al., 2016; Hamed et al., 2019).
