Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of quadratus lumborum block at the lateral supra-arcuate ligament(QLB-LSAL)and erector spinae plane block(ESPB)on early postoperative recovery in patients undergoing posterior lumbar surgery.Methods Ninety-three patients,aged 25～70 years,BMI 18～30 kg/m2 and ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ and scheduled for posterior lumbar surgery,were randomly divided into QLB-LSAL combined with general anesthesia(Group Q),ESPB combined with general anesthesia(Group E),and general anesthesia alone(Group N).Postoperatively,all groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA).The following parameters were recorded:the scores of Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale(RASS)and Bergman Comfort Scale(BCS)at awakening,6 h,12 h,and 24 h postoperatively;Likert scale score at PCIA cessation;the scores of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)and Early Postoperative Quality of Recovery-15(QoR-15)at 1 day preopera-(P<0.05).(2)Compared with Group N,group Q exhibited lower PSQI scores and higher QoR-15 scores at 1 and 3 days postoperatively(P<0.05).No statistically significant difference in PSQI scores was observed between group E and N(P>0.05),while group E had higher QoR-15 score than group N only at 1 day postoperatively(P<0.05).Both at 1 and 3 days postoperatively,group Q had lower PSQI scores and higher QoR-15 scores than group E(P<0.05).(3)Postoperative awakening time,extubation time,PACU stay time,time to first anal exhaust and time to first ambulation were significantly shorter in group Q than those in group N(P<0.05).Group E only showed shorter time to first anal exhaust compared to group N(P<0.05).Furthermore,group Q had a significantly shorter PACU stay time than group E(P<0.01).(4)There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups of patients.(P>0.05).Conclusions Both QLB-LSAL and ESPB effectively improve postoperative analgesia and early recovery quality.However,QLB-LSAL demonstrates advantages in enhancing patient comfort,analgesia satisfaction,sleep quality,and accelerating overall postoperative recovery.
