U.S., June 4 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07624058) titled 'Erector Spina Plane Block Versus Modified Thoracoabdominal Nerve Block After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy' on May 29.
Brief Summary: direct comparisons between ESPB and M-TAPA for postoperative analgesia after LC remain limited. This is an important area of clinical interest because the two blocks differ significantly in their anatomical targets, mechanism of analgesia, and likely dermatomal coverage. The ESPB provides analgesia through paravertebral spread affecting both dorsal and ventral rami, thereby offering posterior and visceral pain relief, whereas M-TAPA directly targets the thoracoabdominal nerves, resulting in better anter...
