Analgesic efficacy of different volumes in erector spinae plane block in patients undergoing single level lumbar spine fixation: a non-inferiority randomized trial [PDF]
BMC AnesthesiologyBackground Using a lower volume (LVs) of local anaesthetic (LA) reduces the risk of toxicity, side effects, and cost. Our study assessed whether the lower LA volumes (10 or 15 ml) have the same analgesic efficacy as 20 ml of erector spinae plane block ...
