简要总结
Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) with continuous catheter infusion is widely regarded as a superior technique in providing prolonged duration of postoperative analgesia in adult as well as paediatric patients in thoracic surgery but with newer peripheral blocks such as erector spinae plane block (ESPB) with a continuous catheter infusion, one can achieve the same amount of pain control at much lesser complications when compared to thoracic epidural.
A lot of studies have been published where epidural analgesia is compared to erector spinae plane block in adult in terms of their efficacy and safety.However, to the best of our knowledge, there is limited literature on comparison between the efficacy of ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) with continuous catheter infusion in paediatric patients undergoing unilateral thoracic surgery.
This study has been planned to compare the efficacy of two techniques in post operative pain control in paediatric patients under going unilateral thoracic surgery.
