Summary

This study aims to better understand the dispersion of local anesthetic on the Erector Spinae Block, a new technique developed for analgesia. It consists on injection of local anesthetic around the posterior muscles of the Spine. In this study, the investigators will make the injection with coloring solution on cadavers and by dissection will note the dispersion of the solution according to injectate volume. The investigators hypothesize more volume allows bigger spread and will allow new indications of this technique in perioperative analgesia and treatment of chronic Pain

Conditions

  • Nerve Block

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Erector Spinae Plane Block

Ultrasound guided injection of coloring solution (methylene blue diluted in water) with a 18G echogenic tuohy needle deep to the plane of the erector spinae muscles.
