{ "pk": 1587, "title": "Erector Spinae Plane Block Performed in the Emergency Department for Abdominal Pain: A Case Series", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "<p><b>Introduction:</b> Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks are fast becoming a core part of opioid- sparing, multimodal, acute pain management in the emergency department (ED) setting. The ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of musculoskeletal and neuropathic painful conditions in the ED. </p><p><b>Case Series:</b> Here we report the effective use of the ESPB for pain control in four patients who presented with acute abdominal pain related to biliary obstruction in a resource-limited setting. </p><p><b>Conclusion:</b> The ESPB may be helpful in treating abdominal pain related to biliary obstruction, which is a novel indication for this well-established technique. This application is particularly relevant in resource-limited settings with significant delay in definitive surgical management. Further research is needed prior to widespread adoption.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
