Summary

Pediatric Liver transplantation surgery is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain that is related to large abdominal incision cutting muscles and fascia and the anterior abdominal wall and drains. Peri-operative pain management after this surgery is centered on intravenous opioids, which cannot provide complete pain relief and are responsible for side effects such as vomiting or respiratory depression. Fifty-two per cent of pediatric patients reported moderate to severe pain on the day of surgery and 33% on day 1. 42% of patients reported vomiting. Increasing interest has focused on opioid sparing analgesic strategies to avoid some of the detrimental side effects of opioids. Recently, the focus has been on postoperative regional analgesia after major pediatric in major thoracic or abdominal surgeries. Thoracic epidural anesthesia or paravertebral blocks are efficacious but raise some concerns related to their potential complications especially in Liver transplantation with the risk of coagulation disorders.

Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is an interfascial plane block whereby Local anesthestic (LA) is injected beneath the iliocostalis, longissimus, and spinalis muscles to achieve multi metameric analgesia for pediatric thoracic, cardiac, or abdominal surgery.

I Investigators' hypothesis is with efficient peri operative regional analgesia will reduce the opioids consumption, allow a very early extubation after such long surgeries and improve the quality of recovery by reducing the side effects of opioids as sedation. nausea vomiting delay of first intake.
