Summary

This prospective parallel group randomized study will be conducted over 52 adult participants between 20 and 60 years ASA (American Association of Anesthesiologists) I and II undergoing lumbar spine surgery. The participants will be randomly allocated into 2 groups. Group BM (Bupivacaine + magnesium sulfate) will receive bilateral erector spinae block using bupivacaine and magnesium sulfate after induction of general anesthesia, while group BD (Bupivacaine + dexmedetomidine) will receive bilateral erector spinae block using bupivacaine and dexmedetomidine after induction of general anesthesia. Hemodynamic changes will be monitored intraoperatively, and postoperative pain will be assessed using the visual analogue scale in order to assess the need for postoperative analgesia.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Analgesia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Erector spinae block using bupivacaine 0.25% and magnesium sulfate

After induction of general anesthesia the patients will be flipped to the prone position and ESP block was performed using, a high frequency linear ultrasound probe placed longitudinally 2 to 3 cm lateral to the 10th thoracic vertebrae, and the trapezius and erector Spinae muscles identified. An 18-G Tuohy needle passed along the plane of the transducer until its tip hit the transverse process of T10; the needle was then withdrawn slightly. Total volume of 25 ml was injected including 20 mL 0.25% bupivacaine plus 3.75 ml NS and 125 mg MgSO4 (1.25ml).
