Özet

Aim: Chronic postoperative pain may develop in more than half of patients after thoracotomy. Studies have shown that the Erector Spinae Plane Block is both an effective and safe analgesia method for thoracotomy. This study aims to investigate the effect of 10 ml 0.5% bupivacaine on postoperative pain in two doses divided from T4-T6 level with a single dose of 20 ml 0.5% bupivacaine from T5 level.
