Interventions

  • 0.2% ropivacaine local anesthetic continuous erector spinae plane block — DRUG
    Treatment- continuous erector spinae block catheter followed by an infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% at 10ml automatic set bolus per 60 minute with 2ml/hr continuous infusion (12mls/hr total per catheter)
  • 0.2% ropivacaine local anesthetic superficially taped continuous erector spinae plane block — DRUG
    Placebo- Superficially placed (taped to the surface) erector spinae block catheter with a ropivacaine 0.2% infusion at 0.1ml /hr
  • Spinal Morphine — DRUG
    200-300 mcg of spinal morphine

Study Details

To determine whether the addition of erector spinae plane (ESP) catheters to existing multimodal analgesic regimen with intrathecal morphine provides superior postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing hepatic resection compared with patients not receiving ESP catheters.

Arms

  • Experimental: Active Treatment
    This group will receive a continuous erector spinae block catheter followed by an infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% at 10ml automatic set bolus per 120 minutes with 2ml/hr continuous infusion (14mls total every 2 hours per catheter)
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo
    This group will receive a superficially placed (taped to the surface) erector spinae block catheter with a ropivacaine 0.2% infusion at 0.1ml /hr

Primary Outcome Measure

Total opioid requirement postoperative day (POD) 1-3 [ Time Frame: Total use from post-operative day (POD) 1, as defined by 24 hours after intrathecal morphine, to POD 3 (3 days from admission to recovery unit) ]
