Case ReportsRhomboid intercostal and subserratus plane block: a case series.
The rhomboid intercostal and subserratus plane (RISS) block is a new interfascial block technique that has shown promising results for abdominal and thoracic surgeries. Our objective was to describe the improved analgesia and dermatomal coverage in patients who received bilateral RISS blocks after a major abdominal surgery. ⋯ The RISS block in abdominal surgery seems to have an important role in perioperative pain management, complementing the multimodal analgesic regimen. To determine the efficacy of the RISS block for abdominal surgery, we need further randomized control trials.

Efficacy of Adductor Canal Block Combined With Additional Analgesic Methods for Postoperative Analgesia in Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Prospective, Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Study.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of adductor canal block (ACB) combined with additional analgesic methods in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and investigate whether blocking the sensory nerves that are distributed in the posterior and lateral aspect of knee could improve postoperative pain control. ⋯ Combining ACB with both iPACK and LFCNB is an effective method for decreasing early postoperative pain in TKA without increasing the complications or affecting the early rehabilitation.

Randomized Controlled TrialThe effectiveness of the intramuscular quadratus lumborum block in postoperative analgesia after cesarean section with vertical incision: a randomized, double-blinded placebo-controlled study.
Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) has recently been used for postoperative analgesia after abdominal surgery. Although there are several approaches to QLB, the effectiveness of intramuscular QLB (QLBi) remains controversial. The aim of the present study was to examine the effectiveness of QLBi for postoperative analgesia after cesarean section with a vertical midline incision. ⋯ QLBi with the concentration and amount of local anesthetic used in the present study was clinically slightly effective, and the effect was limited for postoperative analgesia after cesarean section.

Review Meta Analysis
Quadratus lumborum block for postoperative analgesia after cesarean delivery: A systematic review with meta-analysis and trial-sequential analysis.
The aim of this study was to investigate the analgesic efficacy of Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) versus controls, transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block and neuraxial morphine, or when added to neuraxial morphine in women undergoing cesarean delivery. ⋯ QLB improves post-cesarean delivery analgesia in parturients not receiving neuraxial morphine. Addition of QLB to parturients receiving neuraxial morphine has no significant analgesic benefit. Insufficient data are available to draw firm conclusions of QLB compared to TAP blocks or neuraxial morphine.
