Abstract

Objectives: Evaluation of the analgesia perioperative renal transplant of erector spinae plane (ESP)
compared with PCA analgesia (patient-controlled analgesia) and adverse effects. Materials and
Methods: A study on 60 patients with indications for kidney transplant surgery at the Center for
Surgical Anesthesia - Viet Duc Hospital, randomly distributed into 2 groups of ESP and a control
group. Results: Age, height, weight, BMI, diagnosis, ASA, drug dosage and anesthetic method had
no difference between the two groups of ESP and PCA with p > 0.05. The time for the ESP group to
first require analgesia in the group was 5.7 ± 2.45 hours, 1.76 ± 0.31 hours longer than the PCA group
alone. 24-hour morphine consumption of ESP 5.8 ± 3.5mg compared with PCA alone: 13.3± 6.5mg
statistically significant difference with p < 0.05. VAS scores at rest and movement of the group under
anesthesia decreased statistically. Conclusion: ESP is an effective method of pain relief during and
after surgery, reducing the dose of morphine and reducing the amount of morphine consumption. It
is recommended to apply to enhance the effectiveness of postoperative pain relief.
