A Study to assess the Efficacy of Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) for Post operative analgesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic Cholesystectomy under General Ananesthesia

Phase 4

Not yet recruiting

Conditions: Calculus of gallbladder with acutecholecystitis,

Registration Number: CTRI/2021/06/034416

Lead Sponsor: Department of Anaesthesia JLN Medical College Ajmer

Brief Summary: The erector spinae block is achieved by injecting the local anasthetic solution between the erector spinae muscles (ilicostalis, longissimus, spinalis from lateral to medial) and transverse process. The local anesthetic diffuses into the paravertebral space through spaces between adjacent vertebrae and blocks both the dorsal and ventral branches of thoracic spinal nerves.6-7

In the current study, we will evaluate the efficacy of ESP block by using 0.25% ropivacaine in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia, in terms of postoperative duration of analgesia, intensity of pain, time to request for first rescue analgesic, total rescue analgesic consumption, hemodynamic changes and adverse effects/ complications.
