Erector Spinae Plane Block vs Retrolaminar Block for Analgesia After VATS
Sponsor: Hacettepe University
Summary
This study compared the postoperative analgesic efficacy of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block and retrolaminar block in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Adult patients were randomly assigned to receive either an ESP block or a retrolaminar block after induction of general anesthesia. Postoperative pain intensity was assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at predefined time points. Postoperative analgesic requirements and intraoperative opioid consumption were also evaluated.

Interventions
Erector spinae plane block (ESP)
An ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block was performed after induction of general anesthesia. The block was administered as a regional analgesic technique in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
Retrolaminar block group
An ultrasound-guided retrolaminar block was performed after induction of general anesthesia. The block was administered as a regional analgesic technique in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
