About this study

Official title: Effect of USG Guided ESP Block in Spinal Surgery

American Society of Anaesthesiologist physical status I-II, aged between 18-65, 40 patients which underwent lumbar spinal surgery will recruited to this study. These subjects will Ultrasound (USG) guided erector spinae block will perform at T10 level (bilaterally) to the all patient under general anaesthesia. 15 ml bupivacaine %0.5 and 5 ml lidocaine %2 will use for USG guided ESP block. 0.1 microgram/kg morphine will apply intravenously and diclofenac Na 75 mg intramuscularly will apply at last 30 minutes of surgery postoperative analgesia to all patients. Postoperative pain assessment will perform with visual analog scale (VAS)

Read the detailed description

American Society of Anaesthesiologist physical status I-II, aged between 18-65, 40 patients which underwent lumbar spinal surgery will recruited to this study. The patients were randomly allocated into two groups (1:1), via a computer-generated randomization list. Ultrasound (USG) guided erector spinae block will perform at T10 level (bilaterally) to the 20 patients under general anaesthesia in Group E and same volume saline will apply to the ESP block region at T10 level for control group (Group C). Total intravenous anaesthesia (propofol+remifentanil) will perform to the all patients. 15 ml bupivacaine %0.5 and 5 ml lidocaine %2 will use for USG guided ESP block. 0.1 microgram/kg morphine intravenously and diclofenac Na 75 mg intramuscularly will apply for postoperative analgesia to the all patients at last 30 minutes of surgery. Postoperative pain assessment will perform with visual analog scale (VAS). VAS, morphine consumption and complications will record. The rescue analgesic 0.4 mg/kg mepheridine will administer intravenously whenever the patient requested to the analgesic. Diclofenac sodium 75 mg will repeat to the all patients at the 12th of postoperative period, intramuscularly.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ESP blockDrug

    Ultrasound guided ESP block will perform with 15 ml bupivacaine+ 5 ml lidocaine at the T10 level bilaterally. 0.1 microgram morphine (IV) and diclofenac sodium 75 mg intramuscularly will perform for postoperative analgesia.

  • Control GroupDrug

    In this group Ultrasound guided ESP block will not perform. Postoperative analgesia will provide with 0.1 microgram morphine (IV) and diclofenac sodium 75 mg intramuscularly.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
bupivacaine+lidocaineActive comparator15 ml bupivacaine+ 5 ml lidocaine will use for USG guided ESP block under general anaesthesia with Sevuflurane and remifentanil. This block will perform at the T10 level bilaterally after induction of anaesthesia at the prone position. The patients will receive Morphine 0.1 microgram/kg intravenously and diclofenac sodium 75 mg intramuscularly at the last 30th minute of surgery. Postoperative pain assessment will perform with VAS score. The rescue analgesic 0.4 mg/kg meperidine will be apply intravenously whenever the patient requested to the analgesic.

The patients will receive Morphine 0.1 microgram/kg intravenously and diclofenac sodium 75 mg intramuscularly at the last 30th minute of surgery. Postoperative pain assessment will perform with VAS score. The rescue analgesic 0.4 mg/kg meperidine will be apply intravenously whenever the patient requested to the analgesic.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 11-point numerical rating scale score (NRS score)

    Postoperative pain assessment will perform with 11-point numerical rating scale score and numerical scale point which described by resident will record. Higher points show that severe pain. 0 point shows no pain.10 point shows unbearable pain.

    Measured: up the postoperative 24th hours.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Postoperative analgesic requirement

    When the higher points numerical scale point (4<) observed, additional analgesics will apply. An than, totally consumption of rescue analgesic requirement (meperidine consumotion) will calculate.

    Measured: up the postoperative 24th hours.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ESP block in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Cukurova University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

11-point numerical rating scale score (NRS score) (time frame: up the postoperative 24th hours.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jun 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
