Review Meta Analysis
Cervical-Level Regional Paraspinal Nerve Block in Cervical Spine Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Regional paraspinal nerve block techniques have shown promise in cervical spine surgery pain relief and opioid reduction. The study aims to evaluate cervical-level regional paraspinal nerve block techniques in cervical spine surgery. ⋯ Cervical-level regional paraspinal nerve block effectively reduces postoperative pain and opioid usage, particularly with a dosage exceeding 10 mL, utilizing ESPB and ISPB techniques, administered posteriorly, bilaterally, and under ultrasound guidance.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Programmed intermittent bolus versus continuous infusion for catheter-based erector spinae plane block on quality of recovery in thoracoscopic surgery: a single-centre randomised controlled trial.
Regional anaesthesia techniques, including the erector spinae fascial plane (ESP) block, reduce postoperative pain after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Fascial plane blocks rely on spread of local anaesthetic between muscle layers, and thus, intermittent boluses might increase their clinical effectiveness. We tested the hypothesis that postoperative ESP analgesia with a programmed intermittent bolus (PIB) regimen is better than a continuous infusion (CI) regimen in terms of quality of recovery after VATS. ⋯ Delivering ESP block analgesia after VATS via a PIB regimen resulted in similar QoR-15 at 24 h compared with a CI regimen.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudySuperiority of opioid free anesthesia with regional block over opioid anesthesia with regional block in the quality of recovery after retroperitoneiscopic renal surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
Opioids are the main analgesic drugs used in the perioperative period, but they often have various adverse effects. Recent studies have shown that quadratus lumborum block (QLB) has an opioid sparing effect. The aim of this study was to further evaluate the effect of opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) combined with regional block on the quality of recovery in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic renal surgery. ⋯ OFA with regional block is superior to opioid anesthesia with regional block in the quality of recovery after retroperitoneiscopic renal surgery.
