AbstractNi Eochagain and colleagues report that programmed intermittent bolus and continuous infusion regimens in continuous erector spinae plane (ESP) block catheters produced similar quality of recovery (QoR-15) scores, pain scores, and use of rescue opioids after video-assisted thoracic surgery. This is a reassuring finding for practitioners without access to pumps with programmed intermittent bolus functionality. Nevertheless, it remains plausible that the benefit of one regimen over another might vary depending on the specific infusion parameters. There continues to be scope for research into optimising programmed intermittent bolus delivery and dosing regimens and identifying the most appropriate clinical applications for this mode of infusion.Copyright © 2024 British Journal of Anaesthesia.
