ERECTOR SPINAE PLANE BLOCK IN ELECTIVE LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY

Phase 4

Completed

• Conditions: Undergoing lapraroscopic Cholecystectomy for gall stone disease

• Registration Number: CTRI/2020/01/022656
• Lead Sponsor: ESIPost graduate Institute of Medical Sciences and Research New Delhi

Brief Summary

**Aim of study is to find out the analgesic effect of Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries.**

**Seventy  patients  will be enrolled for this study after inclusion and exclusion criteria.  They will be allocated to one of the two groups**

**Written informed consent will be taken from the patients.**

**Group C= p**atients will receive general anaesthesia alone.

**Group T = patients will receive ultrasound guided-ESPB followed by general anaesthesia**

**After completion of the surgical procedure, and emergence from anaesthesia, the patient will be transferred to the postoperative recovery room(PACU).**

**Patients in both groups will receive i.v. Paracetamol 1gm 6 hourly for pain relief after surgery.**

**Patient will be assessed for pain by anaesthesia resident blinded to group allocation at ½, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24hrs in recovery room.**

**The severity of pain at rest and movement will be assessed using   Numeric Pain Scale (NRS).**

**Total postoperative Analgesic consumption   - (PCA tramadol) will be recorded , Total requirement of rescue analgesic (fentanyl) for NRS >5, will be recorded.**
