Summary

The erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a novel regional anesthetic technique for the treatment of thoracic, cervical, and abdominal pain. This pilot study aims to investigate the post-operative analgesic effectiveness of ultrasound guided single-shot ESP blocks for patients undergoing minimally invasive thoracoscopic wedge resections of the lung in comparison to those receiving conventional parental opioid analgesia alone. This will be achieved through the use of objective measures including quality the 40 point Quality of Recovery assessment (QoR-40) on postoperative day (POD) 1, visual-analogue pain scale (VAS) in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU) and at POD 1, and oral morphine-equivalent (OME) opioid consumption in the PACU and at 24 hours post-operatively.
