TLIP Block and ESP Block For Perioperative Analgesia In Patients With Lumbar Spine Fusion Surgery

Background: Pain relief for lumbar spine surgery is being updated to help improve the quality of post-operative recovery, especially ultrasound-guided pain relief anesthesia methods, including two anesthesia methods. Thoracolumbar interfascial plane block (TLIP block) and erector spinae plane block (ESP block) are increasingly commonly applied. Objective: compare the pain relief effectiveness of TLIP block with ESP block for lumbar spine surgery. Methods: Randomized prospective intervention study conducted at Hanoi Medical University Hospital from October 2021 to October 2022 including 100 lumbar spine surgery patients randomly divided into three groups: group control, TLIP group and ESP group. Outcomes regarding perioperative pain score (ANIm, VAS), the effectiveness of 2 ultrasound-guided methods, the complications and the side effects were recorded.
