Official Title: Dexmedetomidine Versus Magnesium Sulfate in Ultrasound Guided Bilateral Bi-level Erector Spinae Plane Block in Corrective Scoliosis Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Brief Summary:
Posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis surgery may lead to severe postoperative pain which requires significant opioid use for adequate perioperative analgesia. This postoperative pain extends the time of recovery, and thus, safe, and efficient methods for perioperative analgesia are crucial and advantageous for early recovery and ambulation.Traditional opioid-based analgesia techniques are characterized by well-known complications such as vomiting, nausea, sedation, and pruritus. Although regional anesthesia is an…
