Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block(ESPB)on early postoperative respiratory function and inflammatory cytokines in patients with multiple rib fractures(MRFs).Methods Fifty-eight patients who underwent MRFs surgery,42 males and 16 females,aged 18-64 years,BMI 18.5-30.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were selected from February 2019 to December 2021.The patients were divided into two groups using random number method:ESPB combined with general anesthesia group(group E)and general anesthesia alone group(group G),29 pa-tients in each group.All the patients in group E underwent ultrasound-guided ESPB in the lateral decubitus position after general anesthesia induction,and 0.5％ropivacaine 0.4 ml/kg was administered.Forced vital capacity(FVC),arterial blood gas analysis,VAS pain scores at rest and cough were recorded before anes-thesia induction,at discharge from PACU,24 and 48 hours after operation.The number of effective PCIA compressions during 0-24 hours and 24-48 hours after surgery and the number of rescue analgesia were re-corded.The concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α were recorded before anesthesia induction,24 and 48 hours after operation.Results Compared with group G,the FVC was significantly higher,and the VAS score and PaCO2 were significantly lower in group E at discharge from PACU,24 and 48 hours after operation(P＜0.05).The number of effective PCIA compressions during 0-24 hours and 24-48 hours after surgery,the rate of rescue analgesia,the concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α 24 and 48 hours after operation in group E were significantly lower than those in group G(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided ESPB can pro-vide good postoperative analgesia,promote early postoperative recovery of respiratory function in patients with MRFs.
