Summary

Postoperative pain is often severe in patients undergoing lumbar surgery. Due to postoperative pain, patients are unwilling to get out of bed at an early stage, which affects their recovery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) as a new trunk fascia block technique was proposed in 2016. ESPB has aroused the interest of many nerve block experts. The benefits of ESPB are not yet demonstrated. The specific mechanism is still controversial. The erector spinae block is achieved by injecting the local anesthetic solution (with possible adjuvants) between the erector spinae muscles (iliocostalis, longissimus, spinalis/ from lateral to medial) and the transverse process . The technique is performed under ultrasound guidance.

Conditions
