Comparison of the Efficacy of Celiac Plexus Blockade, ESP and Lidocaine Infusion Under OFA

During general anesthesia, a celiac plexus block will be performed intraoperatively (20 ml of 0.5% ropivacaine). The patient will not feel discomfort due to general anesthesia.

Before the procedure, a block of the erector spinae (ESP) compartment will be performed with approximately 20 ml of 0.25% ropivacaine at the Th4 level. The patient will be informed about the possibility of short-term discomfort if the block is performed before full induction of anesthesia.

Instead of a regional block, an intravenous infusion of lidocaine will be used.
